Abstract
The diagnosis of cardiac sarcoidosis, particularly in its isolated cardiac form, represents a major challenge due to non-specific symptoms and the limited sensitivity and specificity of basic cardiac investigations. MRI and metabolic PET-CT are important elements in the diagnostic process. Corticosteroids remain the cornerstone for the treatment of the inflammatory phase, in association with biological agents and steroid-sparing therapies. The goal is to limit the progression of fibrosis, which is a source of malignant arrhythmias and heart failure. The indication for implantation of a cardiac defibrillator must be carefully evaluated to reduce the risk of sudden death. Multidisciplinary collaboration is essential for optimal care.
