Right ventricular arrhythmogenic dysplasia (RVAD) is a typical asymptomatic arrhythmogenic cardiopathy in athletes, which is occasionally concurrent with normal ventricular function and life-threatening arrhythmias. A total of 32 athletes (28 males and 4 females, mean age, 23 years, mean follow-up, 6.7 years) were examined for severe cardiac arrhythmias with left bundle branch block. The conclusive diagnosis of RVAD was established from clinical, echocardio-, and angiographic evidence. The protocol of the examination involved Holter monitoring, loading tests, electrophysiological study, two-dimensional echocardiography, cardiac angiography of the right and left ventricles, coronary angiography. The most severe arrhythmias were observed in athletes whose mean age was 23.4 years, 20 patients had sustained ventricular tachycardia (it occurred only in 19 who were indulging in sports), 6 presented with transient ventricular tachycardia, and 1 had ventricular fibrillation. They all had been considered fit for sports. The disease proceeded severely in 16 of 32 athletes (in 13 of 16 while indulging in sports), the conditions close to syncope were seen in 9 patients (8 had sustained ventricular tachycardias and 1 had transient ventricular tachycardias), syncopes were observed in 5 patients (sustained ventricular tachycardias).
