Abstract

Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia (ARVD) is an unusual cause of electrical storm in the elderly. We report the case of a 76-year-old woman with no previous known disease who developed recurrent ventricular tachycardia and fibrillation. Postmortem examination revealed histological features of arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia.
