Cardiac abnormalities and thyroid function during two episodes of myasthenia gravis crisis.
| MG crisis | TSH mcunit/ml | Peak troponin, ng/ml | ECG changes | Echo findings |
| Episode 1 | 7.6 | 0.16 | ST elevation V1–V6, Q waves V1–V3 | Mid ventricular variant Takotsubo stress cardiomyopathy with reduced ejection fraction (EF) of 25% |
| Episode 2 | 0.569 | 0.32 | Deep, symmetric T inversions V1–V6 | Mid and apical akinesia, EF 30% consistent with classical apical ballooning type of Takotsubo stress cardiomyopathy |
