摘　　要：Despite several efforts to provide a proper nosological framework for Takotsubo cardiomyopathy(TCM),this remains an unresolved matter in clinical practice.Several clinical,pathophysiologic and histologic findings support the conceivable hypothesis that TCM could be defined as a unique pathologic entity,rather than a distinct subset of myocardial infarction with non-obstructive coronary arteries.Further investigations are needed in order to define TCM with the most appropriate disease taxonomy.
