case_images: (a) Patient 08/11/2007 four-chamber view echocardiogram showing a dilated myocardium and an ejection fraction of 25% note sinus rhythm; (b) Patient 09/04/2007 four-chamber view echocardiogram showing less dilatation, movement of myocardium inward during systole, and an ejection fraction of 55%; (c) EKG showing monomorphic ventricular tachycardia due to GPA myocarditis and hyperkalemia.

case_images: Upon presentation to the emergency department, she developed a wide complex tachycardia consistent with monomorphic ventricular tachycardia (see Figure 1). For trends in the labs and echocardiogram data pertinent to this presentation please see Figures 1 and 2 and Table 1. She received two doses of cyclophosphamide and required subsequent treatment with rituximab with complete remission of her symptoms for the last four years (see Figure 2 and Table 1).
