abstract={We report a case of a 42-year-old female with Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy (ARVC) who presented with recurrent episodes of palpitations, dizziness and lightheadedness. On evaluation, she developed a new onset sustained ventricular tachycardia (VT) and the diagnosis was confirmed through genetic testing, cardiac imaging, and electrophysiological study. Insertion of automatic implantable cardioverter defibrillator (AICD), antiarrhythmic medication, and ventricular ectopy radiofrequency ablation afforded improvement of symptoms. In conclusion, combination of these treatment modalities abated ventricular tachycardia from ARVC.},
