PT072 Heart failure and sudden death in infarcted patients with prior revascularization; 13-year experience

O ST E R A B ST R A C T S patients, and in 2 of 3 patients this led to improvement in LV function to normal, while the remaining patient died in hospital. Two patients developed ventricular arrhythmia also leading to one in-hospital death, and one death at 2 years after initial diagnosis. Conclusion: Our findings suggest endomyocardial biopsy has good diagnostic yield for EM, corticosteroid is an effective first line treatment, and ventricular arrhythmia is an important cause of mortality. Multi-centre collaboration to obtain a larger data set for this rare condition is warranted. Disclosure of Interest: None Declared
