title: Transient myocardial dysfunction in a patient with subarachnoid haemorrhage.
abstract: We report a patient of subarachnoid haemorrhage who presented with severe left ventricular dysfunction and marked electrocardiographic changes indistinguishable from acute myocardial infarction. Coronary arteriography showed normal anatomy and the ventricular regional wall motion abnormalities recovered spontaneously after 3 weeks. The implications of this association are discussed.
