Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="main"> <title>Cardiac Sarcoidosis</title> <sec id="jce12552-sec-0010" sec-type="section"> <p>Cardiac sarcoidosis can occur in up to 25% of patients with sarcoidosis in other organ systems and may present with conduction abnormalities, ventricular arrhythmias, or heart failure. This review will summarize the state of current knowledge and key questions that remain to be answered. Because cardiac sarcoidosis is a rare, complex disease, the most meaningful research will include interdisciplinary, multicenter collaborations.</p> </sec> </abstract>
