چکیده
A 67-year-old man with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome type A presented with second degree atrioventricular block in anomalous pathway and complete infra-Hisian block in the His-Purkinje pathway. He had increasingly frequent attacks of dizziness not related to exercise. A permanent ventricular demand pacemaker was successfully implanted following intracardiac electrophysiological studies.

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...
متن کاملVentriculo-atrial conduction time during reciprocating tachycardia with intermittent bundle-branch block in Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome.
Records from patients with the Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome were reviewed with particular emphasis on the occurrence of bundle-branch block aberration during reciprocating tachycardia and the significance of this observation with respect to accessory pathway location. Increase by greater than 25 ms in the ventriculoatrial interval during reciprocating tachycardia with bundle-branch block, whe...
متن کاملArrival of excitation at right ventricular apical endocardium in Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome type A, with and without right bundle-branch block.
Filtered bipolar right ventricular apical (RVA) and His bundle electrograms, using electrodes only i mm apart, were recorded in two patients with intermittent WPW type A with and without 'complete' right bundle-branch block. In beats with exclusive normal pathway conduction and 'complete' right bundle-branch block, the HV and V-RVA intervals represented His-to-left ventricular endocardial and l...
متن کاملPost-traumatic Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome description and case presentation
The ventricular pre-excitation syndrome (Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome) is defined as a premature activation of the entire ventricular myocardium by a super-ventricular impulse. The premature activation is made by accessory conduction pathways that produce a short circuit in the normal nodo-hisian pathway. The accessory pathways are made of atrial myocardial fibers that have a higher conductio...
متن کاملType A Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome obscured by left bundle branch block associated with a vascular malformation of the coronary sinus.
A case of Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome type A with coexisting ipsilateral bundle branch block is presented. The diagnosis was suspected because of subtle electrocardiographic changes and was confirmed at electrophysiological study. Necropsy showed a vascular anomaly of the coronary sinus that contained bundles of myocardial muscle which crossed the atrioventricular ring at a site that was con...
