Overview
Symptoms of WPW syndrome may include Palpitation, Chest pain or chest tightness, Dizziness, Light-headedness, Brief loss of consciousness, Shortness of breath, Exercise intolerance, Anxiety. The most common arrhythmias associated with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome is AV reentry tachycardia. WPW syndrome, uncommonly presents as cardiac arrest or sudden cardiac death.The accessory pathway of WPW syndrome is present since birth. The age of presentation of tachyarrhythmia varies from patient to patient. Infants may develop heart failure if not treated immediately. Symptoms of tachycardia related WPW syndrome in infants may include Lethargy, Breathlessness, Loss of appetite.
