It is characterized by transient regional systolic dysfunction of the left ventricle mimicking acute myocardial infarction. The term Takotsubo originates from the Japanese word for an \u201coctopus trap,\u201d which resembles the shape of the ventricle during systole. A 28\u2010year\u2010old woman in the early postpartum period presented to the emergency department with a sudden onset retrosternal chest pain and shortness of breath. At first, electrocardiography and laboratory evaluation workups suggested acute coronary syndrome. Transthoracic echocardiography revealed hypokinesia of the basal and mid left ventricular segments with preserved apical contractility, resulting in a left ventricular ejection fraction of 35%. The patient underwent immediate coronary angiography, which showed normal coronary arteries as well as no obstructive disease. Follow\u2010up echocardiography showed recovery of left ventricular function with an improvement of the left ventricular ejection fraction to 55%, consistent with a diagnosis of reverse Takotsubo cardiomyopathy, occurring in the postpartum period which is an important STEMI mimic. Takotsubo cardiomyopathy is an important differential diagnosis in postpartum women presenting with acute coronary syndrome\u2010like symptoms and requires careful multimodal evaluation to distinguish it from peripartum cardiomyopathy and myocarditis. The patient stabilized following supportive management, with complete recovery of left ventricular function.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/ccr3.73277","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,18]],"date-time":"2026-08-18T05:02:32Z","timestamp":1787029352000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Reverse Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy Mimicking\n                    <scp>ST<\/scp>\n                    \u2010Elevation Myocardial Infarction in a Postpartum Woman"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"14","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0002-6418-2627","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Eshita","family":"Sharma","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Shaheed M Monsur Ali Medical College  Sirajgonj Bangladesh"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nusrat","family":"Jahan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Shaheed Syed Nazrul Islam Medical College  Kishorgonj Bangladesh"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Raisa","family":"Mubarok","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"North\u00a0East Medical College and Hospital  Sylhet Bangladesh"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Siratun","family":"Nahar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Dhaka Medical College and Hospital  Dhaka Bangladesh"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shahnaj Nahar","family":"Chowdhury","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"North\u00a0East Medical College and Hospital  Sylhet Bangladesh"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nasir Uddin","family":"Khan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Pabna Medical College  Sylhet Bangladesh"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Farjana","family":"Parvin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Sylhet Osmani Medical College and Hospital  Sylhet Bangladesh"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0001-3344-2097","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Khaleda","family":"Parvin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Army Medical College Jashore  Jashore Bangladesh"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0002-1518-5805","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Md.
