Successful treatment of recurrent cardiac sarcoidosis with the combination of corticosteroid and methotrexate monitored by (18)F-fluoro-2-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography: case series

BACKGROUND: The standard treatment for cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) is corticosteroids, including prednisolone (PSL). Previous studies have shown that the addition of methotrexate (MTX) to PSL is effective for steroid-refractory and recurrent cases. (18)F-fluoro-2-deoxyglucose positron emission tomograp...
