title: [Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support for tako-tsubo syndrome after urgent caesarean section].
abstract: Tako-tsubo syndrome is a rare cardiomyopathy secondary to catecholamine toxicity responsible of myocardial stunning. Severe complications such as cardiogenic shock or ventricular arrhythmia can occur. We presented the case of a 32-year-old woman victim of a tako-tsubo syndrome with severe cardiogenic shock during surgical procedure for urgent caesarean section.
