# Characters.EmeraldCity: Had his heart removed with a mechanical one after his fall. '''The setting is somewhat fantastical, but it's no different from a human on our world having an artificial heart (with no personality change of course).



# Fanfic.TheBlueBlurOfTermina: The Skull Kid does this to Lady Venus by ripping her Heart Container out of her body. '''YMMV.TheBlueBlurOfTermina indicates the act is intended to kill Lady Venus.'''



# Characters.DragonFableOtherCharacters: Roirr rips out Izbor's heart in order to perform a spell that allows Roirr to change into his physical likeness. '''This and the next example involves KillAndReplace, where Roirr kills Izbor by extracting the latter's heart and disguise as the latter. The first one is AttackOnTheHeart; the latter part seems to better fall into LiteralChangeOfHeart.'''
# YMMV.DragonFable: Roirr probably crossed it long ago, but his first act of unspeakable horror is when he [[HeartTrauma steals a man's heart]] in order to disguise himself as his appearance, or for those willing to overlook that he summons Vaal's [=SoulAlly=] just to devour her. But what really seals the deal on how awful Roirr is compared to previous antagonists, is when he liquifies an entire village of people using dark magic, all the while tricking the friend of the person who he's pretending to be in helping him. '''See the example above.'''
# Series.EerieIndiana: SoulFragment: In "Heart on a Chain", when Devon forgot to Look Both Ways, he died and Melanie [[HeartTrauma got his heart]] for the transplant she needed. She then proceeded to act like him, skateboarding recklessly and carving graffiti on the desks. '''This is LiteralChangeOfHeart.'''

# Characters.CaseClosedPeopleFromNotableCases: DarkAndTroubledPast: Only in the manga. After the death of his mother and his financial ruin, Hades Sabara murdered both the people hounding him for money and the friend who suggested he invest in the stock market. And the friend's whole family. And he apparently ripped their hearts out.



# Characters.KatawaShoujo: YourDaysAreNumbered: Said HeartTrauma means that Hisao's special condition is the only one of the main cast's that is outright stated to be a mortal concern, and he says at various points that he expects to die young. Again, this is one of the major issues he has (though he does get medicine and advice which will hopefully help stave off said mortality) During the opening hospital scene, the doctor tries to assure him that people with his condition can live fairly long lives, but Hisao seems to ignore this and it's never brought up again.

# Characters.DragonFablePartyMembers: She collects the hearts of the monsters she slays. '''Note: It's a fantasy setting, but we're talking about taking the heart out physically after they're dead.'''



# JoJosBizarreAdventure.TropesGToK: {{Gorn}}: Not as bad as say... Vagabond or even Fist of the North Star since it's mainly blood, not guts or limbs flying. But it is still one of the most violent shonen series out there. Specifically Araki likes to draw injuries in specific organs the [[HeartTrauma readers]] will probably cringe at the idea of being hurt in there. '''Note: Seems to refer to mundane injuries covered by AttackOnTheHeart.'''
# NightmareFuel.LiveActionTV: Alguien Te Mira: Each of the Villain Protagonist's very gruesome murders. Specially goes to him beheading a guy with an electric saw and cutting the local Action Girl's heart off her body. His Karmic Death isn't much better, since he has flashbacks to the time when his mother raped him and then gets set on fire...

# Characters.PhantomThiefJeanne, Zen Takazuchiya: The demon is keeping Zen alive by possessing him, and if Jeanne checkmates, he'll succumb to his failing heart. The anime takes it up a notch and has the demon outright enter his heart itself. '''Note: This is a bit of both types of misuse: This character has a congenital heart defect (a common form of the "mundane" type of misuse), but he made a DealWithTheDevil of which the demon keeps his heart hostage, and can cause AttackOnTheHeart when there's an attempt in removing the demon. There's a mind-altering effect of the demon residing in his heart, but I think this is more properly dealt with DemonicPossession.'''

# OnceUponATime.TropesEToF: EnslavedTongue: One of the possible side-effects of [[HeartTrauma owning someone's heart]] -- not only can you essentially use the victim as an unintentional mole, you can also make them say things you want them to say in order to manipulate others.

# Characters.{{Sinfest}}: His heart takes a great deal of abuse, starting since his heart got emptied of its empathy, and now it's worse thanks to his SuperPoweredEvilSide.

# Characters.HonooNoAlpenRoseNazisAndAssociates: BatmanGambit: He uses his youngest daughter Mathilda as Jeudi's Body Double, having her trick Hélène into believing she is the real Alicia (who is actually Jeudi) - which was very easy back then, considering that Hélène's non-existant eyesight doesn't let her see that Mathilda looks nothing like the grown-up Jeudi, who has been missing for a long time so nobody really knows how she would look like. Then, once Mathilda has wormed her place in Hélène's affections, he blackmails the Dunants into doing whatever he asks them too, threatening with taking "Alicia" away from Hélène - which will be fatal for her due to her Break the Cutie past and her very weak [[HeartTrauma heart]].

# Characters.TheDragonPrinceXadia: Its heart is removed and used to power a dark magic spell to warm the lands of Katolis and Duren.

# Characters.TowardsTheSun: Zuko develops electricity-induced arrhythmia due to having to tank Azula's lightning attacks.

His arrhythmia combined with his poor condition due to his imprisionment, poor sleep habits, poor eating habits and terrible lifestyle altogether lead to it Zuko endangering his life in critical moments.

# DarthWiki.SwordAndShadowAdventures: Syndal's heart was removed by Dr. Mordenheim for her own purposes. He wants it back.

# DepravedBisexual.{{Literature}}: Oddly, every other character in Lloyd Rose's Doctor Who Expanded Universe novels. There are at least two villains who gently caress the Doctor while doing bad things to him, and the Doctor seems to have a bit of fun with this trope himself, flirting with Anti-Villain Sabbath and amplifying his usual No Sense of Personal Space. (The Doctor is also fairly clearly stated to be bisexual, but he's usually almost a Chaste Hero unless someone really catches his eye or he sees an opportunity to flirt annoyingly.) To be fair, Sabbath literally stole the Doctor's heart, and should have known a Pungeon Master like the Doctor wasn't going to let that one go lightly.

His arrhythmia, combined with his poor condition due to his imprisonment, poor sleep habits, poor eating habits and terrible lifestyle altogether, leads to Zuko endangering his life in critical moments.
# Fridge.KnightsOfTheBorrowedDark: The Endless King doesn't want a war... but seems perfectly willing, even eager, to start one and burn the world if the Order doesn't find what was taken, even after he finds out they didn't steal it. Why? [[HeartTrauma Because he's missing his mercy!]]
# JoJosBizarreAdventure.TropesGToK: {{Gorn}}: Not as bad as say... Vagabond or even Fist of the North Star since it's mainly blood, not guts or limbs flying. But it is still one of the most violent shonen series out there.Specifically Araki likes to draw injuries in specific organs the [[HeartTrauma readers]] will probably cringe at the idea of being hurt in there.
# Literature.BridgeOfBirds: "A man with no heart likes things cold."
# Literature.KnightsOfTheBorrowedDark: The Endless King's heart was carved out.

# Literature.MachineMan: DestinationDefenestration: This is what happens to the Manager when he jokes about Lola's EMP HeartTrauma
# Literature.TheWonderfulWizardOfOz: The Tin Woodman's entire motivation in the original book that he erroneously believed he was experiencing this. Since he had literally lost his heart, he thought he had lost his capacity for kindness and love. In fact, he was almost saintlike in his love and kindness toward nearly everything he met; he just wasn't sentimental or strongly emotional.

# NightmareFuel.LiveActionTV: Alguien Te Mira: Each of the Villain Protagonist's very gruesome murders. Specially goes to him beheading a guy with an electric saw and cutting the local Action Girl's heart off her body. His Karmic Death isn't much better, since he has flashbacks to the time when his mother raped him and then gets set on fire..
# OnceUponATime.TropesEToF: EnslavedTongue: One of the possible side-effects of [[HeartTrauma owning someone's heart]] -- not only can you essentially use the victim as an unintentional mole, you can also make them say things you want them to say in order to manipulate others.
# Pantheon.EnvironmentalSettings: Norris: The most adored of the entire group, was infected early on and "died" by a heart attack only to reveal itself
# Series.EerieIndiana: SoulFragment: In "Heart on a Chain", when Devon forgot to Look Both Ways, he died and Melanie [[HeartTrauma got his heart]] for the transplant she needed. She then proceeded to act like him, skateboarding recklessly and carving graffiti on the desks.
# TakeAThirdOption.AnimeAndManga: At the climax to the "Chapter of Egg" in Princess Tutu, Kraehe has captured Prince Mytho and challenges Tutu to a competition to win the affection of Mytho's feelings of love. What Kraehe is counting on is the fact that if Tutu confesses her love for Mytho, she will disappear. This being Princess Tutu, the show where the main character routinely uses her magical ballet dancing to accomplish her goals, so no points for guessing what happens next.
# VideoGame.DarkParables: TookALevelInJerkass: Prince Fiachra. To be fair, he's [[HeartTrauma literally missing his heart.]]
"# WaxingLyrical.{{Literature}}: And in the Eighth Doctor Adventures novel Camera Obscura, the Doctor quotes ""All Along the Watchtower"" while trying to escape a creepy Eldritch Location with a man who literally stole his [[HeartTrauma heart]]:
""'There must be some way out of here,' said the joker to the thief."""
# Webcomic.MonsterPulse: Bina's heart is literally gone due to transforming into Ayo, which initially freaks her out quite a bit. She can still function normally though, and is even able to feel her pulse.
# YMMV.DragonFable: Roirr probably crossed it long ago, but his first act of unspeakable horror is when he [[HeartTrauma steals a man's heart]] in order to disguise himself as his appearance, or for those willing to overlook that he summons Vaal's [=SoulAlly=] just to devour her. But what really seals the deal on how awful Roirr is compared to previous antagonists, is when he liquifies an entire village of people using dark magic, all the while tricking the friend of the person who he's pretending to be in helping him.
# YouHaveFailedMe.AnimeAndManga: In Princess Tutu, when Princess Kraehe continually fails to bring the Raven a [[HeartTrauma heart]] as a sacrifice, he attempts to eat her heart instead. She escapes, but barely. (Ironically, he then later seems to be surprised when she betrays him and tries to save Mytho from the same fate.)
