文摘
A 57-year-old woman had transient right hemiplegia 2 days after physical stress. An electrocardiogram exhibited T-wave inversion with QT prolongation. An echocardiogram revealed akinesia of the entire left ventricle except for the basal region. Cranial computed tomography and transthoracic echocardiography revealed an apical thrombus that disappeared 1 month later. Coronary angiography was normal. After 3 months, left ventricular wall motion had completely normalized.
