    Author: Bertola G, Torchio G, Meregalli M, Sironi C, Benvenuto M.
    Journal: Recenti Prog Med; 1993 Nov; 84(11):765-7. PubMed ID: 8290788.
    Abstract:
    We describe a case of cardiac sarcoidosis manifested by arrhythmias, shock, chest pain, mitral valve prolapse and incompetence, aortic vascular involvement. Steroid therapy corrected shock and arrhythmias, but was unable to prevent the progression of the mitral valve insufficiency. Subsequently pulmonary and tricuspid valve incompetence were also observed.
