Case Report: Adjunctive hemoadsorption therapy in a patient with Takotsubo cardiomyopathy and hyperinflammation
This case highlights a rare presentation of suspected inflammation-triggered Takotsubo cardiomyopathy complicated by rapid clinical deterioration. The use of CytoSorb hemoadsorption was associated with stabilization of vital parameters and recovery of organ function. Although causality cannot be confirmed, this case supports the early consideration of hemoadsorption as a feasible and potentially beneficial adjunct in select critically ill patients with suspected hyperinflammation. Further research is needed to clarify its role in TCM and related syndromes.
