Abstract | Isolated cardiac sarcoidosis is a rare subset of sarcoidosis, a systemic autoimmune condition primarily found in African American females. The manifestations of cardiac sarcoidosis include atrioventricular and bundle branch blocks, arrhythmias, heart failure, and pericardial effusions, although these complications occur at varying prevalence. The diagnosis of cardiac sarcoidosis requires several different criteria; however, recent literature has focused heavily on imaging modalities such as cardiac magnetic resonance imaging. We present a case of a 42-year-old Caucasian male who was found to have unexplained cardiac arrhythmias and ultimately diagnosed with cardiac sarcoidosis by imaging modalities. |
