title: Les liaisons dangereuses: Tako-Tsubo syndrome after an adulterous intercourse in an elderly male.
abstract: We report the case of an 81-year-old man who presented with chest pain after an adulterous intercourse with a young woman. At echocardiography a typical apical ballooning phenomenon was detectable and completely reversed after one week. Coronary angiography did not show significant coronary atherosclerosis.
