In the present report, we describe a patient with AC who first exhibited LBBB- and 10 years later RBBB-sustained VT. Contrasting with what is usually observed in patients with AC, documentations of the VT's arising from either ventricle were found to precede the structural anomalies in the respective cardiac chambers. This case highlights that normal CMR does not exclude underlying AC contrary to the perceptions of many clinicians. In addition, it strongly encourages repeating CMR after 1-2 years when the diagnosis of AC is highly suspected.
