    Abstract
    Key Points: 1. Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) is a disease affecting the right, and/or the left ventricle, and commonly presents as an electrical disorder with ventricular arrhythmias and increased risk of sudden cardiac death. 2. ARVC cannot be diagnosed by a single test, and is a clinical diagnosis supported by electrophysiologic, morpho-functional, genetic, and histological data based on the 2010 Task Force 2 criteria. 3. Familial involvement occurs in more than 50%, and referral to a specialist centre with access to genotyping is appropriate in selected cases. 4. Implantable cardioverter-defibrillator ...

Familial involvement occurs in more than 50%, and referral to a specialist centre with access to genotyping is appropriate in selected cases. 4. Implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) therapy carries risk, and appropriate thresholds should apply before offering this, particularly in younger individuals.
