Summary:<p>Abstract</p> <p>A combination of ARVC and RV NVM/HVM, which is extremely rare, to our knowledge, is never reported.

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.</p>
