Successful Triple Combination Immunosuppressive Therapy with Prednisolone, Cyclosporine, and Mycophenolate Mofetil to Treat Recurrent Giant Cell Myocarditis.
Tomomi Akita,Shumpei Mori,Akira Onishi,Shigeo Hara,Haruhi Yamada,Akira Nagasawa,Hiroshi Imada,Hiroyuki Shimoura,Junichi Ooka,Hidekazu Tanaka,Ken-ichi Hirata +10 more
TL;DR: Triple combination immunosuppressive therapy maintained with additional mycophenolate mofetil successfully controlled recurrent myocarditis, enabled a reduction in the prednisolone dose, and achieved the functional recovery of the left ventricle.

TL;DR: A case of ischemic cardiomyopathy who underwent implantation of a cardiac resynchronization therapy device with a defibrillator was facilitated by preprocedural computed tomographic images reconstructed to visualize the left ventricular slab and the coronary venous system simultaneously on the cardiac contour.
