A patient presented with severe heart failure due to myocardial sarcoidosis. Sarcoidosis was diagnosed by biopsy of the skin and uptake of gallium-67 in the heart. We treated the patient with corticosteroids and succeeded in improving her condition. We assume that this was a rare case in which severe heart failure improved following with steroid therapy.
一名因心肌结节病出现严重心力衰竭的患者。通过皮肤活检及心脏对镓-67的摄取诊断为结节病。我们用皮质类固醇对该患者进行治疗，并成功改善了她的病情。我们认为这是一例罕见的在类固醇治疗后严重心力衰竭得到改善的病例。
