Clinical Features and Outcomes of Patients with Chemotherapy-induced Takotsubo Syndrome
Chemotherapy treatment of malignancy accounts for 1–2% of takotsubo syndrome (TS) triggers. Women comprise 60–70% of patients with chemotherapy-associated TS, a distinctly lower prevalence than the 90% female prevalence in TS overall. Fluorouracil is the most commonly reported TS-triggering chemothe...
