Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia (ARVD) causes heart rhythm problems and sudden death, especially in athletes. Early detection and treatment improve outcomes, making screening vital for high-risk individuals.

Area of Science:

  • Cardiology
  • Genetics
  • Pathology

Context:

  • Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia (ARVD) is a genetic heart condition.
  • It infiltrates the right ventricle with fibro-fatty tissue.
  • ARVD can lead to ventricular tachycardia and sudden cardiac death.

Purpose:

  • To describe the pathophysiology, clinical presentation, and prognosis of ARVD.
  • To highlight the importance of left ventricular function in ARVD prognosis.
  • To emphasize the need for screening in at-risk populations.

Summary:

  • ARVD involves fibro-adipose infiltration of the right ventricle, potentially leading to ventricular tachycardia and sudden death.
  • Prognosis is linked to left ventricular health; a healthy left ventricle offers a good prognosis with anti-arrhythmic treatment.

  • Left ventricular abnormalities can lead to progressive heart failure and dilated cardiomyopathy.

    • Impact:

    • ARVD is a significant cause of sudden death in athletes and individuals in high-risk occupations.
    • Routine screening is recommended for athletes and those in demanding professions.
    • Effective management of ARVD can eliminate the risk of sudden death and improve long-term outcomes.
