Overview
Catheter ablation is indicated in the long term management of patients with Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome.[1]
Catheter Ablation
The indications of catheter ablation in WPW syndrome are as follows:
- Asymptomatic preexcited AF with rapid conduction over the accessory pathway in electrophysiology study
- Asymptomatic preexcitation in specific jobs such as airline pilots, athletes involved in moderate or high level competitive sports
- Precence of AVRT and preexcited AF
- Presence of atriofascicular( mahain) accessory pathway
