Welcome

Welcome to you, interested in ARVCs which represents a wide spectrum of diseases poorly recognised diagnosed and treated.
This is related to the complexity of this new category of cardiomyopathies in which some have been known under a different name.
Nowadays, I think it is timely to put them in the same basket under the name of "ARVCs" to concentrate the expertise of many investigators interested in only one aspect of these diseases which have more or less some features in common the first being that they are involving the Right Ventricle !

Being also the founder of the unique style of Calligraphic Painting and Drawing I have illustrated this blog with some of my 2300 recorded pieces of art.

Important analysis of full thickness RV myocardium

This document was obtained from the man who died suddenly with Holter recording

This figure shows a unique and important information about the disease biomechanics. It is now for me obvious to see that we have two layers of myocardium Endocardial longitudinal and Epicardial layers which are perpendicular to the endocardial layers.

  1. I am impressed by the topographic structure of this RV free wall :
    - Nl epicardial fat
    - Dysplastic epicardial fat
    - Severe fatty tissue in the transitional zone
    - Normal thin endocardial layer
