This diagnosis is mostly overlooked because major cardiac problems are rarely the presenting manifestations of vasculitis&#46; Involvement of the heart has been described in the third stage of the disease&#44; as observed in our patient&#46; It is usually associated with vasculitic lesions in the myocardium and coronary vessels causing &#40;peri&#41;myocarditis&#44; heart failure&#44; cardiac tamponade&#44;

Patients with acute multiorgan disease should receive intravenous glucocorticoid &#40;eg&#46; methylprednisolone 1 g daily for three days&#41; followed by oral glucocorticoid therapy&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0010"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2&#44;17</span></a> Prednisone doses of 0&#46;5-1&#46;5 mg&#47;kg per day are typically administered until disease remission is attained and then gradually tapered to the lowest dose required for control of symptoms and signs of active CSS&#46; The higher dose is used for patients with more aggressive disease&#44; including those with cardiac involvement&#46; Clinical remission of isolated pericarditis&#44; without other visceral involvement&#44; can be obtained with corticosteroid therapy alone&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0065"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">13</span></a> However&#44; in the case of myocardial involvement the addition of immunosuppressive therapy is recommended&#46;

but insufficient data are available on CSS to make a clear recommendation regarding this choice&#46; There is also disagreement concerning the duration of immunosuppressive therapy&#46; However&#44; in a preliminary study of patients with CSS&#44; those receiving six pulses of cyclophosphamide had more relapses than those receiving 12 pulses &#40;94&#37; vs&#46; 41&#37;&#41;&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0095"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">19</span></a> Further data are needed to clarify whether the benefits of 12 pulses outweigh the additional risks&#44; especially of bladder toxicity&#46; Our case report clearly demonstrates the possibility of complete reversal of cardiac disease with appropriate steroid and immunosuppressive therapy&#44; which is in agreement with previous studies&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0095"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">19&#8211;22</span></a> However&#44; this vasculitis can be fulminant if not identified early and may on occasion present with cardiogenic shock with a malignant course requiring urgent transplantation&#44; despite therapy&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0115"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">23&#44;24</span></a> Reports of heart transplantation in this setting are rare and only limited information is available on feasibility&#44; outcome or relapse after heart transplantation in patients with CSS&#46; While one case reported a good long-term result&#44;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0115"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">23</span></a> recurrent disease after initially successful transplantation was observed in another patient&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0125"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">25</span></a> Cardiac involvement in CSS thus requires immediate therapy&#44; which may allow recovery of cardiac function and reduce the significant cardiac mortality associated with CSS&#44; underlining the need for an aggressive invasive diagnostic approach in CSS patients with heart lesions&#46;</p><p id="par0045" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Recent research with multimodality assessment&#44; including ECG analysis&#44; echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging&#44; has also shown a high incidence of cardiac involvement &#40;62&#8211;90&#37;&#41; in patients with full clinical remission&#44; characterized not only by fibrosis&#44; but also by an active inflammatory process&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0130"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">26&#44;27</span></a> Since cardiac involvement is one of the most important predictors of an adverse outcome&#44;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0090"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">18</span></a> these findings could influence current recommendations for cardiac evaluation and therapeutic decisions in asymptomatic patients&#46; An early diagnosis detecting silent inflammation could be valuable&#44;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0140"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">28</span></a> since appropriate therapy can prevent progression to harmful episodes of cardiac disease and so reduce the high mortality associated with these manifestations&#46; Systematic cardiac evaluation in asymptomatic patients with detailed imaging still lacks validation of its clinical benefit but could be an important procedure in the future&#46;</p></span><span id="sec0020" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0040">Conclusion</span><p id="par0050" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Because of its multiple forms of presentation and multiorgan involvement&#44;
