Stress-induced cardiomyopathy as a variant of cardiac injury in mine-blast polytrauma in a young male patient (clinical case report)
Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: Stress-induced cardiomyopathy is a relatively rare paratraumatic event with a distinct and quite specific semiology. In practice, this condition is encountered primarily in vascular centers specializing in providing medical care to individuals with symptoms of acute coronary syndrome. A relatively high incidence of this nosology is observed among postmenopausal women. However, this rule is not absolute. This pathology is described significantly less frequently in men and is represented by individual clinical observations. The living conditions of the civilian population in certain regions of the Belgorod region determine an increasing number of casualties as a result of hostilities. In this context, the description of clinical observations of such a pathological condition of the myocardium in young individuals exposed to mine-blast trauma with concomitant traumatic brain injury seems relevant. Keywords: blunt chest trauma, cardiac trauma, stress-induced cardiomyopathy, mine-blast trauma.
