Broken heart syndrome in myasthenia gravis

Broken heart syndrome or stress‐induced non‐ischemic cardiomyopathy (SICM) has rarely been reported in the setting of myasthenic crisis. We describe a case of reversible SICM that occurred simultaneously with myasthenic crisis in a 77‐year‐old man without prior cardiac history, and we discuss the previous findings that support an association of other cardiac disorders with myasthenia gravis.
