Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TTS)， known as stress cardiomyopathy， is a rare disorder characterized by acute and transient left ventricular systolic and diastolic dysfunction， often associated with a stressful， emotional or physical event。 TTS may be closely related to SARS-CoV-2 infection and the ongoing pandemic。 The enormous emotional stress caused by the pandemic and respiratory infections caused by SARS-CoV-2 could be potential triggers for TTS。 The case series cited above implicates that TTS should be considered in the differential diagnosis across the entire spectrum of myocardial injury in SARS-CoV-2 infected patients。 Myocardial damage associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection is usually attributed to sepsis， hypoxemia， coronary artery disease， and myocarditis。 We hypothesize that TTS may also play a role among these lesions。
