  • Title: Not letting the left side know what the right is doing!
    Author: Michael KA, Morgan JM.
    Journal: Eur J Cardiothorac Surg; 2008 Apr; 33(4):748-50. PubMed ID: 18314340.
    Abstract:
    Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia (ARVD) encompasses a spectrum of presentations including ventricular tachycardia, sudden cardiac death and heart failure. Complete right ventricular disarticulation was effective in a young athletic male who was refractory to drug therapy and experienced recurrent shock therapies from an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator that were incapacitating. The case highlights the challenging management of ARVD despite over two decades of research and the resurgent interest in ventricular disarticulation.
