Description

Sarcoidosis is a multidisciplinary disease. Cardiac sarcoidosis is one of the most serious manifestations of systemic sarcoidosis. Due to relatively low prevalence of the disease, understanding about etiology, pathogenesis, clinical manifestation, and management approaches is limited. This symposium involves presentations about diagnosis, management and surveillance of complications related to cardiac sarcoidosis.

3. Identify role of prolonged ambulatory rhythm monitoring for cardiac sarcoidosis.
4. Discuss risk stratification for the need of pacing and defibrillation therapy.
5. Explain the role of immunosuppressants for treatment of cardiac sarcoidosis.
6. Describe management of ventricular arrhythmia in patients with cardiac sarcoidosis.
