Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) during the peripartum period is a relevant cause of morbidity in this population; its clinical course and prognosis, compared to the general TTS population, is yet to be elucidated. Our aim was to analyze the clinical features and prognosis of peripartum TTS in a nationwide prospective specifically oriented registry database and consider the published literature. Peripartum TTS patients from the prospective nationwide RETAKO registry—as well as peripartum TTS patients from the published literature—were included, and multiple comparisons between groups were performed in order to assess for statistically and clinically relevant prognostic differences between the groups. Patients with peripartum TTS exhibit a higher prevalence of secondary forms, dyspnea, atypical symptoms, and echocardiographic patterns, as well as less ST-segment elevation than the general TTS population. In the literature, patients with peripartum TTS had a higher Killip status on admission. TTS during the peripartum period has a higher prevalence of angina and dyspnea, as well as physical triggers, neither of which are related to a worse prognosis. Killip status on admission was higher in the literature for patients with TTS but with excellent mid- and long-term prognoses after the acute phase, despite mostly being secondary forms.
