Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) Syndrome — Causes, ECG and Treatment
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome (WPW) is a term referring to Louis Wolff who published an article in 1930 that describes 11 patients suffering from episodes of tachycardia with characteristic ECG findings (ECG pattern shows bundle branch block and shortened P-R interval). In 1943, anatomical accessory pathway of conducting tissue has been described that bypasses the atrioventricular (AV) conduction system. This article will describe definition, pathophysiology, clinical manifestations, diagnosis and treatment of WolffParkinson-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...
