Аннотация
Cardiac sarcoidosis is a challenging clinical entity in terms of diagnosis and management. Cardiac involvement is the most common cause of death in patients with sarcoidosis. Recently, there have been new advancements in the imaging modalities that aid in the diagnosis of this condition, including cardiac MRI and PET scan. These tools can help identify and determine the extent of the progression of sarcoidosis, which can have diagnostic and therapeutic implications. In this report, we present the case of a 74-year-old man with no history of sarcoidosis who presented with sustained ventricular tachycardia (VT) and was subsequently found to have findings consistent with burnt-out sarcoidosis on imaging. This case highlights the differences in the management of various stages of cardiac sarcoid involvement to reduce adverse outcomes.
