Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC), formerly called arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia/cardiomyopathy (ARVD/ARVC), is a myocardial structural abnormality disease with clinical presentation of cardiac arrhythmia. It is characterized by the replacement of the myocardium with fibrofatty tissue. We present a case of a young male who met two major criteria for definite diagnosis of ARVC: early transition inverted t waves in lead V1-V4 and MRI showed right ventricle (RV) dyskinesia with RV ejection fraction (EF) < 40%, both satisfying the two major criteria of EKG and MRI required for definitive diagnosis.
