Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TTC) is a rare clinical syndrome and is associated with intense emotional and physical stress. It has been demonstrated that TTC may be triggered by sepsis, however there is no data relation between type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM), subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) and TTC. We present a patient with TTC who was previously diagnosed SSPE and type 1 DM and was admitted to emergency service with sepsis which is triggered by aspiration pnomonia.
Key words: Takotsubo cardiomyopathy, subacute sclerosing panensefalitis, type 1 diabetes mellitus
