Description
Alexander Podgorski and four co-authors manage a heart invaded by lymphoma, with no playbook to consult. A 39-year-old woman arrived with a fever syndrome first read as a returned traveler's illness. Workup found stage IV peripheral T-cell lymphoma inside her heart muscle, with ventricular tachycardia. The team had to weigh sudden death risk against an antibody-drug chemotherapy plan and a later stem cell transplant.
No direct evidence base existed for such a case. Decisions grew from team discussion, careful risk scoring, and lessons borrowed from cardiac sarcoidosis care. The report stresses the patient's youth and prior health in each call.
