Table 3. Wall motion abnormalities in TTS.

LV, left ventricular; TTS, Takotsubo syndrome

[5], [24-26]

Location	Wall motion abnormality
Apical	The most common type of pattern of wall defect found in the TTS International Takotsubo Registry. There is significant LV systolic apical ballooning with mid/apical hypokinesia and often basal hyperkinesia.
Mid-ventricular	The second most common pattern of wall defect found in the International Takotsubo Registry. There is LV hypokinesia/wall defect only in LV mid-ventricular region with apical sparing.
Basal	The third most common type of pattern of wall defect found in the International Takotsubo Registry. There is basal hypokinesia of LV with sparing of mid-ventricular and apical region.
Focal	The fourth most common type of pattern of wall defect found in International Takotsubo Registry. In this type, isolated anterolateral segment dysfunction of LV is found.
Global	In rare circumstances, TTS patients can have global hypokinesia.
