Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia is a disease of the cardiac muscle of unknown etiology. Landmarks of this disease are the presence of muscular atrophy and replacement of ventricular myocardium by adipous and fibroadipous tissue. This disease was originally described by Fontaine et al in 1977 during surgical ablation of drug refractory ventricular tachycardias in patients without evident structural heart disease. During surgery anomalies in contractility of the right ventricle and the presence of adipous tissue were documented. Some years later, Markus et al reported the first clinical series of patients with arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia. Since then, this disease has been widely recognized and must be considered in the differential diagnosis of all patients with ventricular arrhythmias originating in the right ventricle.
