Cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) is a rare and under-recognized clinical entity that requires a high level of suspicion and low threshold for screening in order to make the diagnosis. CS may manifest in a variety of ways, and its initial presentation can range from asymptomatic electrocardiographic abnormalities to overt heart failure to sudden cardiac death. The aim of this literature review is to provide a comprehensive overview of CS, with an emphasis on clinical manifestations and special diagnostic and management considerations, while highlighting recent studies that have provided new insights into this unique disease.
心脏结节病（CS）是一种罕见且未得到充分认识的临床病症，为了做出诊断，需要高度怀疑并降低筛查阈值。CS可能以多种方式表现出来，其初始表现范围从无症状的心电图异常到明显的心衰再到心源性猝死。这篇文献综述的目的是全面概述CS，重点关注临床表现以及特殊的诊断和管理考量，同时突出那些为这种独特疾病提供了新见解的近期研究。
