Abstract

• McConnell's sign is not always demonstrated during a massive PE. • The pattern seen on echocardiography is another manifestation of right heart strain. • TAPSE and S′ were unable to assess systolic function of the right ventricle. • Similarities arise between this case and takotsubo syndrome of the right ventricle.
