We describe a patient presenting with ischemic ECG changes and troponin elevation after a tonic-clonic seizure, with LV dysfunction on echocardiography characteristic of takotsubo cardiomyopathy. Coronary angiography was initially delayed, but later showed obstructive CAD in the LAD and RCA. Cardiac MRI helped to clarify the observed regional wall motion abnormalities as likely due to ischemia rather than takotsubo cardiomyopathy. This case highlights the diagnostic uncertainty in cases where takotsubo cardiomyopathy coexists with obstructive CAD, and the growing role of cardiac MR in cases of diagnostic uncertainty.
