Takotsubo cardiomyopathy is one reversible heart disease, which presents as an acute myocardial infarction with ST-elevation in ECG. This Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy is one of the Cath laboratory diagnosis, that means, if the apical ballooning along with absence of obstruction of the corresponding coronary artery, then only the Takotsubo cardiomyopathy is diagnosed. But however there may be some exceptions. We describe a case of 80yr old male presenting the Emergency department with typical anginal symptoms for 3hours suggestive of acute myocardial infarction. The initial ECG demonstarted lateralwall Infarction. Serology revealed elevated cardiac Enzymes. As per the guidelines one emergency coronaryangiography was performed and revealed occluded Ramus diagonalis-2 and Plaque Rupture in mid segment of Right coronary artery, the ventriculography confirmed apical ballooning consistent with takotsubo cardiomyopathy and not in the vascular territory supplied by the occluded epicardial vessel. Traditionally, the Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy is labelled as a diagnosis only in absence of the obstruction of the corresponding coronary artery. This case however reflects the coexistence of the obstructed coronary artery and the takotsubo cardiomyopathy and moreover in a male, so the diagnostic criteria for Takotsubo cardiomyopathy my need a prompt review and this case definitely adds to the number of coexistence.

Background: There are two approaches to the determination of the population at risk of atherothrombotic disease: the herd approach and the targeted approach. In the former scenario, all people are treated, usually with lifestyle changes, but also with medications at times. In the latter scenario, only those deemed at risk of atherothrombotic disease are treated. The author has always favored the latter approach, but for the target approach to be effective, one must know the population at low risk of atherthrombotic disease. Objectives: The purpose of this manuscript is to demonstrate that the population at low risk of atherothrombotic disease can be readily identified and needless treatment can be avoided. Methods: The author has conducted a chart review of his family practice patients roster and separated out the cohort of those who developed some form of atherothrombtic disease from the general population cohort. Results: The author has shown that three major risk factors for atherothrombotic disease can accurately define the population at low risk of atherothrombotic disease: no use of cigarettes, lack of dyslipidemia, and lack of hypertension. Dyslipidemia is defined in terms of the Cholesterol retention Fraction, defined as the difference between low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, that difference divided by the low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, but also whenever low-density lipoprotein cholesterol exceeds 170mg/dl. Hypertension is defined as a systolic blood pressure of 140mmHG or higher or any blood pressure that is being treated. Additionally, the author has shown that in the absence of these three major risk factors, the presence of diabetes mellitus is not associated with early onset atherothrombotic disease. Conclusions: People who do not manifest the three major risk factors for atherothrombotic disease (cigarette smoking, dyslipidemia, and hypertension)are not at risk of early or middle-age onset atherothrombotic disease. Such people do not require therapy though the high blood sugar levels of uncontrolled diabetes mellitus will require treatment to prevent microvascular disease.
