Abstract
 Ventricular tachycardia (VT) is a mortal rhythm that can occur for many reasons. Wolff Parkinson White (WPW) syndrome cause VT. Although there are usually signs and symptoms specific to underlying diseases, sometimes it may not be possible make differential diagnosis. A 32-year-old male presented the emergency department with complaints of sudden onset palpitations weakness. He w...

Background: The non-Doppler echocardiographic technique known as two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (2D-STE) has been demonstrated to help assess dyssynchrony and allow quantification of cardiac deformity timing in 2D greyscale images. This study evaluated the role accessory pathway (AP) localization compared electrophysiology (EPS) gold standard technique. Methods: was performed...

Cardiac rhabdomyomas are benign cardiac tumours and are often associated with tuberous sclerosis. They are often asymptomatic with spontaneus regresion but can cause heart failure, arrhythmias, and obstruction. There have also been a few isolated reports of Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome occurring in association with tuberous sclerosis and the great majority has been detected in patients with c...

Echocardiographic studies of interventricular septal motion were performed in 26 consecutive patients with the Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome and in ten normal subjects. All patients with types A or B pre-excitation were subclassified into groups I to IV on the basis of their electrocardiogram utilizing the method of Boineau and associates. In all 14 patients with type A (Group III or IV)...

BACKGROUND cardiac arrhythmias are commonly observed in the fetus, however, may have major consequences for fetal development and post natal life. AIMS to evaluate the perinatal management and cardiac outcome of fetuses with tachy- or bradyarrhythmia. STUDY DESIGN perinatal management, outcome and long-term cardiac follow-up were evaluated retrospectively in consecutive fetuses with cardiac...

Preexcitation by accessory pathways (APs) is known to cause dyssynchrony of the ventricle, related to ventricular dysfunction. Correction of ventricular dyssynchrony can improve heart failure in cases of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCMP) with preexcitation. Here, we report the first case of a child with DCMP and Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome treated with amiodarone and radiofrequency cathete...

We report 3 infants with Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome who presented with life-threatening paroxysmal reciprocating atrioventricular tachycardia in their first month of life. The diagnosis was confirmed by electrophysiological studies at ages 2--4 years, but the characteristic ECG of pre-excitation has not been shown in one patient and was first recorded at 2 and 3 years in the other two...
