Cardiac involvement in eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis.
This case report describes a 40-year-old male patient with severe cardiac failure due to eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) and myocarditis. The fast diagnostic approach with cardiac MRI (CMR) and immunosuppressive treatment with glucocorticoid and cyclophosphamide near-normalized the patient's cardiac function. Myocarditis due to EGPA is rare, however life-threatening, so a systematic approach and early CMR should be considered in patients with known asthma presenting with eosinophilia and cardiac involvement.
