Electrocardiogram and echocardiographic and radiologic images on the current admission. a Electrocardiogram on the current admission. T-wave inversion became more prominent. b, c Echocardiography on the current admission at end diastole (a) and end systole (f). Dyskinetic wall motion was observed at the eft ventricular apex (arrows), but the base of left ventriculum showed hypercontraction. d, e Coronary angiography showed normal left (d) and right (e) coronary arteries. f, g Left ventriculogram at end diastole (f) and at end systole (g). Basal hypercontraction and apical ballooning were demonstrated
