An 86-year-old male patient was admitted in our cardiology ward with signs of congestive biventricular heart failure. The patient presented with deteriorating dyspnea on mild exertion and at rest the last days, compatible with class NYHA Ⅲ-Ⅳ heart failure, bilateral peripheral oedema, increased NT-proBNP (9198 pg/mL), mildly elevated Troponin (TnT 64 pg/mL), interstitial pulmonary oedema and bilateral pleural effusions in chest X ray.
