DOI: 10.1093/eurheartj/ehz748.0560
Abstract: Sarcoidosis is a multi-systemic granulomatous disease of unknown etiology. Cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) has proven to be a clinically significant cause of unexplained ventricular dysfunction, atrioventricular block (AVB) and ventricular tachyarrhythmias (VT). Studies have suggested that… read more here.
