Abstract [en]

Revision of the Task Force diagnostic criteria (TFC) for arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy/dysplasia (ARVC/D), in 2010, has increased the sensitivity for the diagnosis of early and familial forms of the disease. Epsilon wave (EW) is a major diagnostic criterion in the context of ARVC/D, however, it remains unquantifiable and therefore, may leave room for substantial subjective interpretation, thus, explaining the existing high inter-observer variability in the assessment of EW. EW, when present, coexists with other disease characteristics, which are sufficient for ARVC/D diagnosis, making EW generally not required for ARVC/D diagnosis. Nevertheless, EW remains an important part of the electrocardiographic phenotype of ARVC/D that may be useful in planning diagnostic work-up, which needs to be recognized.
