    Abstract:
    Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia is a rare cardiomyopathy, but a frequent cause of ventricular tachyarrhythmia and sudden cardiac death among young otherwise healthy individuals. This article contains a review of the current knowledge on epidemiology, diagnosis, symptoms and signs as well as theories on etiology and pathogenesis, prognosis and treatment. The aim is to draw attention to the disease as a cause of syncope, ventricular tachycardia and sudden cardiac death.
