Heart rate and intermittent Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome.

Radiofrequency catheter ablation in the treatment of Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome

Introduction: Tachyarrhythmias in Wolf Parkinson White (WPW) syndrome, can be a life threatening factor. Antiarrhythmic drug therapy in this syndrome, has not been completely acceptable. Efficacy, safety and economy of Radio Frequency Catheter Ablation (RFCA) in western studies, has made it as the treatment of choice. In the present study, efficacy of RFCA in the ablation of accessory pathway...

The spatial ventricular gradient: intermittent Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome, intermittent left bundle branch block and ventricular premature contractions.

Malignant vasovagal syndrome in two patients with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome.

The presence of Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome in patients presenting with syncope suggests that tachyarrhythmia may be the cause. However, the symptoms require careful evaluation. Two young patients presented with syncope and were found to have WPW syndrome on their ECG. In both patients symptoms were suggestive of vasovagal syncope. During tilt testing, both the patients developed their...

Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome. Circus movement tachycardia dependent on procainamide.

A patient with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome was disabled by rapid ventricular rates during atrial arrhythmia and by periods of asystole. Circus tachycardia was induced by atrial stimulation only after the administration of procainamide. Nevertheless, treatment with this drug controlled the ventricular rate and spontaneous circus tachycardia did not occur.
