摘要
With interest we read the case report of Budnik, et al. about the oldest patient with Takotsubo cardiomyopathy （TTC） so far reported. We have the following comments and questions： TTC is frequently triggered by emotional or physical stress. Were there any emotional or physical triggers for TTC in the presented patient？ It is indicated that the patient felt chronic stress associated with her memories of World War II. Since the World War II ended more than 70 years ago, it would be interesting if any recent event exacerbated her memories.
