Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia as a possible cause of sudden cardiac death: a case report and clinical review.

ABSTRACT

Sudden cardiac death can be described as an unexplained natural death due to a cardiac cause. It occurs within a short period, one hour or less, after onset of symptoms in a person without any prior medical history. Among the many causes of unexplained sudden cardiac death, we would like to specifically discuss arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia as a rare cause in otherwise healthy and usually young individuals.
