Tako-tsubo cardiomyopathy is characterized by a transient and reversible left ventricular dysfunction and shows clinical similarities with the acute coronary syndrome. Here, the authors report and discuss a case of a patient with tako-tsubo cardiomyopathy triggered by adrenaline injection after a wasp sting.
