Core Tip Takotsubo cardiomyopathy is a stress-induced cardiac condition with significant psychobiological underpinnings. This review synthesizes evidence on the role of psychological factors, including anxiety and post-traumatic stress disorder, in Takotsubo cardiomyopathy pathogenesis and prognosis. It highlights diagnostic approaches integrating imaging and psychological assessments, and evaluates psychological interventions such as cognitive behavioral therapy and group support, which may improve outcomes. Ongoing controversies and future directions for personalized treatment are discussed, emphasizing the need for multidisciplinary management of this mind-heart disorder.
