title: Sustained ventricular tachycardia in an apparently healthy heart: a very localized left dominant arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy.
abstract: A 62-year-old man admitted for presyncope presented two symptomatic sustained ventricular tachycardia with right bundle branch morphology and inferior axis suggesting a pathology of the left ventricular lateral wall, the site where Cardiac Magnetic Resonance demonstrated a thinned, hypokinetic segment with fibro-fatty subepicardial infiltration. A very localized Left Dominant Arrhythmogenic Cardiomyopathy was diagnosed and an ICD implanted.
