چکیده
Two patients with a history of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia but no evidence of the Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome in the conventional electrocardiograms were studied utilizing atrial and ventricular extrastimuli. The evidence obtained in these patients was consistent with a concealed Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome. In one patient,, ventricular extrastimuli revealed three different responses in the curve of ventriculoatrial conduction, depending upon the interval of stimu-

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 کاملInducible multiform ventricular tachycardia in Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome.
The induction of ventricular tachycardia by ventricular stimulation was investigated in 46 patients with isolated Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome (10 concealed) and 36 control patients with normal electrocardiograms and conduction systems. None of those studied had spontaneous ventricular arrhythmias or myocardial or valve disease. Single and double ventricular extrastimuli were delivered at 3 c...
متن کاملAtrioventricular reciprocal rhythm and chronic reciprocating tachycardia in a newborn infant with concealed Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome.
A case of atrioventricular reciprocal rhythm and chronic reciprocating tachycardia in a newborn infant is presented. Electrophysiological studies suggest that these rhythm disturbances are related to the presence of a right-sided atrioventricular accessory pathway capable only of retrograde conduction (concealed Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome). The technique of recording the sequence of atrial ...
متن کاملNon-invasive diagnosis of concealed Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome by detection of concealed anterograde pre-excitation.
Electrophysiological findings suggest that concealed anterograde conduction through accessory pathways may exist even during sinus rhythm in patients with so-called concealed Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome. To evaluate the pre-excitation characteristics in various types of WPW syndrome, high-resolution electrocardiograms were analyzed in 81 consecutive WPW syndrome patients and 50 age-mat...
متن کاملAnalysis of Re - entry Mechanisms in Three Patients with Concealed Wolff - Parkinson - White Syndrome
Three patients with recurring attacks of supraventricular tachycardia and no electrocardiographic evidence of the Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome (WPW syndrome) were studied using intracardiae recordings and atrial stimulation. The findings are interpreted as evidence of a concealed WPW syndrome. In all patients there was antegrade block of the anomalous atrioventricular (A-V) pathway while retr...
