An Unusual Case of Atrial Wall Cardiac Sarcoidosis Detected on Fluorine-18 Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography-Computed Tomography Scan

Isolated cardiac sarcoidosis (ICS) accounts for 5%–10% of patients with sarcoidosis. It can involve atrioventricular node causing heart block, as well as the basal septum, papillary muscles, focal regions in the free wall, and the myocardium being more commonly involved. The diagnosis is achieved on...

description Isolated cardiac sarcoidosis (ICS) accounts for 5%–10% of patients with sarcoidosis. It can involve atrioventricular node causing heart block, as well as the basal septum, papillary muscles, focal regions in the free wall, and the myocardium being more commonly involved. The diagnosis is achieved on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and endomyocardial biopsy. Recently, Fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography and computed tomography (F-18 FDG PET) has been incorporated in the diagnosis as well as management algorithm. We describe an interesting case of ICS detected on F-18 FDG PET and MRI and discuss its role in the management of this rare presentation.
