Abstract
We report the patient who had severe heart failure due to sarcoidosis. The patient was a 59-year-old male. He had no history of dyspnea on effort. Since January 6th 2012 he experienced nocturnal dyspnea and a routine annual health check revealed bilateral pleural effusion and bilateral hilar lymph adenopathy. He was diagnosed with congestive heart failure and visited our hospital on January 26th. He was admitted that day and 5 days later coronary angiography was performed. The results showed normal coronary arteries but the subsequent Ga scintigraphy revealed accumulation of Ga in the hilar lymph nodes bilaterally.
