Cardiac sarcoid is a disease of young adults. Arrhythmias or sudden death may be the first manifestation of cardiac sarcoidosis. Consideration for cardiac sarcoid should be given to all young patients with arrhythmias, heart failure, or episodes of sudden death. Surgical intervention may be warranted in patients with symptomatic cardiac sarcoid because of poor response to current medical therapy.
