In today’s noon report, we discussed a curious case of a 60-year-old male with recurrent syncope. The presentation highlights the differential diagnosis of syncope, emphasizing the importance of identifying cardiac red flags. Diagnostic workup revealed high-grade AV block and imaging consistent with pulmonary and cardiac sarcoidosis. Management involved corticosteroids, implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) insertion, and multidisciplinary follow-up.

The presentation concludes with practical learning points about diagnosing and managing sarcoidosis-related heart block and conduction disease.
