Key result
Sepsis was associated with the development of diffuse left ventricular myocardial calcification detected on CT imaging in a 58-year-old man with acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
Highlights a rare presentation of diffuse left ventricular myocardial calcification developing during sepsis, detectable by CT imaging.

May prompt CT scrutiny for calcification in septic leukemia patients; hypothesis-generating, requiring larger studies before clinical relevance.
Simonson et al. (2007) studied this question. Sepsis was associated with the development of diffuse left ventricular myocardial calcification detected on CT imaging in a 58-year-old man with acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
