Recurrent immunosuppressive-responsive myocarditis in a patient with desmoplakin cardiomyopathy: a case report.

Cardiac MRI and genetic testing are key diagnostic techniques in the assessment of patients with recurrent myocarditis and cardiomyopathy. The management of cardiomyopathies with an inflammatory component is not completely understood; however, there is likely a key role for immune suppression therapies. Furthermore, there are several cardiomyopathy genetic variants including DSP which require careful risk stratification due to an increased risk of sudden cardiac death.
