Aim: Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy or dysplasia (ARVC/D) is characterized by the gradual replacement of the right ventricular myocardium with fibrous and adipose tissue and can cause ventricular tachyarrhythmia in young patients. Mean platelet volume (MPV) is reported to be an easily measurable marker reflecting platelet activation and plays an important role in the pathophysiology of cardiovascular disorders. In this study, we aimed to assess MPV in patients with ARVC/D.
