| Abstract | Cardiac involvement in sarcoidosis has been reported to be as high as 50% of cases and it is well documented that it is associated with a poorer prognosis. Early recognition and treatment is key to reducing the risk of fatal arrhythmias and heart failure. We report a case of undiagnosed systemic sarcoidosis in a young man who initially presented to the emergency department with complete heart block in the context of preserved biventricular systolic function, and then again with ventricular tachycardia and moderately impaired left ventricular systolic function. We discuss how 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography with CT was used for accurate diagnosis and how its role in the management of sarcoidosis has expanded with recent evidence suggesting it to be a mainstay of management and disease monitoring in cardiac sarcoidosis. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
