Abstract
Description
La miocardiopatía arritmogénica del ventrículo derecho es una patología, en la mayoría de los casos de origen genético autosómico dominante caracterizado por el compromiso, tanto morfológico como funcional, del ventrículo derecho en el que se reemplaza el tejido del miocardio normal por tejido fibroadiposo, generando un sustrato arritmogénico. Se debe sospechar en todo paciente joven que presente síncope, taquiarritmia ventricular o paro cardiaco. Su diagnóstico se establece por la sumatoria de criterios que incluyen hallazgos morfológicos, electrocardiográficos y alteraciones funcionales. En la actualidad no hay un tratamiento único establecido; sin embargo, se sigue trabajando en el diagnóstico temprano y el uso de terapias más avanzadas. Se realiza una revisión de la literatura en el contexto de la presentación de un caso clínico diagnosticado en la ciudad de Bucaramanga en un adulto joven de género masculino. MÉD.UIS. 27(3):123-134.
Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia is a pathology, mostly genetic of dominant autosomic pattern characterized by both morphologic and functional compromise of the right ventricle in which normal myocardial tissue its replaced by fibrous and adipose tissue generating an arrhythmogenic substrate. It must be evaluated in all young patients presenting syncope, ventricular tachyarrhythmia or cardiac arrest. Its diagnosis it’s established upon the consideration of morphological criteria, electrocardiographic findings and functional alterations. Currently there is not a definite treatment established; however there is ongoing research in early diagnosis and advanced therapies usage. In this article we provide a literature review in the context of a clinical case diagnosed in a male young adult from the city of Bucaramanga in Colombia. MÉD.UIS. 27(3):123-134.
