Detection of Myocardial Damage in Patients With Sarcoidosis

Detection of myocardial damage in patients with sarcoidosis.

BACKGROUND In patients with sarcoidosis, sudden death is a leading cause of mortality, which may represent unrecognized cardiac involvement. Delayed-enhancement cardiovascular magnetic resonance (DE-CMR) can detect minute amounts of myocardial damage. We sought to compare DE-CMR with standard clinical evaluation for the identification of cardiac involvement. METHODS AND RESULTS Eighty-one con...

Prognostic Value of Myocardial Damage in Patients With Sarcoidosis

Sarcoidosis is a granulomatous disease of unknown pathogenesis that can affect virtually any organ system. Cardiac involvement results in significant morbidity and mortality, with some studies reporting that cardiac involvement accounts for up to 25% of all deaths from sarcoidosis in the United States and more than half of all deaths in Japan. Many deaths seem to be arrhythmic in nature and are...
