A combination of right ventricular hypertrabeculation/noncompaction and arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy: a syndrome?
A combination of ARVC and RV NVM/HVM, which is extremely rare, to our knowledge, is never reported. RV NVM/HVM could be the cause and consequence of ARVC, or RV NVM/HVM and ARVC could be a consequence of a certain undetermined cause. It must be kept in mind, however, that the interaction of NVM/HVM and ARVC could be in part of pathophysiology mechanism of the combination even if as a consequence of an underlying genetic factor.
