Document Details : Title: Radiofrequency catheter ablation of an accessory pathway during preexcited atrial fibrillation Author(s): KOSE, Sedat , IYISOV, Atila , KURSAKIOGLU, Hurkan Journal: Acta Cardiologica Volume: 58 Issue: 2 Date: April 2003 Pages: 159-162 DOI: 10.2143/AC.58.2.2005270 Abstract : Radiofrequency catheter ablation of accessory pathways can not routinely be performed during preexcited atrial fibrillation.However,atrial fibrillation occurs frequently in patients with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome during an electrophysiologic study, causing difficulty for both the patient and the operator. In this case report we present two cases with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome treated by catheter ablation during preexcited atrial fibrillation.The localizations of accessory pathways were left lateral in one case, and right posteroseptal in the other. |
