EDITORIAL REVIEWS

Product Description

This book covers all aspects (biological, pathological, genetics, clinical and therapeutical) of arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy/dysplasia, a recent cardiomyopathy which represents a very high risk of sudden death in the young and in athletes. The monograph presents the results of 5-year research program on ARVC/D supported by grants of both the European Commission and the NIH, which enabled the discovery of seven disease-causing genes, thus opening new avenues for the early identification of affected patients and for sudden death prevention.

A panel of top scientists, both European and Americans, contributed to this volume, which will be an essential reference for professionals and residents in cardiology, radiology, human genetics, and sport medicine.

a classical book  
it was the only one book for ARVD/C during a decade.
what else can be said?

Helpful? Too costly to find out for the average person!  
I have researched this ARVD website in hopes of gaining insight, information and answers to this heart disease that I have been diagnosed with, however, with the price being this outrageous....well, I guess I'll have to rely on a library or my misguided physicians!

costly  
for being the ONLY book on this subject it's a bit much to ask for over $200 dollars. my nephews have just been diagnosed and i cant afford the info! if it is to be a teaching tool-make it accessible.

The ultimate authority on ARVD!  
As the only book written on this subject, this is truly the ultimate resource for patients and doctors. It contains writings and findings from the world's most dedicated and talented researchers of ARVD. The photographs are exceptional and the gentic exploration is especially interesting.
