Overview
Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome is named after the cardiologists Louis Wolff, John Parkinson and Paul Dudley White who gave a definitive description of the conduction disorder of the heart in 1930. The term Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome was coined in 1940.
Historical Perspective
- Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome was first discovered by frank Norman Wilson, an American cardiologist in 1915, following investigation about influence of vague on ventricular complex .[1]
- In 1930, the EKG of patients with paroxysmal tachycardia, bundle branch block pattern and short PR interval was described as Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome by Paul Dudley White, and Louis Wolff.[2]
- Bundle of Kent was first discovered by Albert Frank Stanley Kent, a British physiologist following finding the lateral branch in the atrioventricular groove of the monkey heart.[3][4]
