Abstract
Described herein is a 71-year-old man who underwent orthotopic heart transplant (OHT) for chronic severe heart failure secondary to cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) devoid of non-caseating granulomas but nevertheless characteristic of CS. Clinically, his heart disease had suggested the presence of arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy.
