Loeys-Dietz syndrome and isolated severe ostial left main coronary stenosis presenting as ventricular fibrillation arrest and biventricular takotsubo syndrome in a 25-year-old patient
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We present the case of a previously healthy 25-year-old woman who presented with an out-of-hospital ventricular fibrillation arrest. Postresuscitation ECG did not show any evidence of ST segment elevation. Echocardiogram showed regional wall abnormalities in keeping with takotsubo syndrome (TTS). Urgent coronary angiogram to rule out malignant congenital coronary artery anomaly revealed an isolated severe ostial left main coronary artery (LMCA) stenosis, a rare disease, approximately 0.2% in previous case series. The LMCA was aneurysmal. Genetic studies revealed a novel frameshift pathogenic variant in the transforming growth factor B two ligand gene (TGFB2) gene, suggestive of Loeys-Dietz syndrome (LDS) type 4, an aggressive vascular disease. Ostial LMCA stenosis has not been previously reported in LDS, and we outline the management of this unique disease combination. We also reflect on its presentation as TTS and infer that TTS and acute coronary syndromes are not mutually exclusive.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
