RESUMEN
This report describes a case of cardiac sarcoidosis in a 40-year-old man with minimal risk factors for coronary artery disease who was found to have a critical coronary lesion on angiography performed for declining left ventricular function. The case highlights the diagnostic and therapeutic issues surrounding cardiac sarcoidosis and raises the question of a possible link between sarcoidosis and premature coronary artery disease. It also stresses the importance of ruling out ischemia in any patient with declining left ventricular function.
