ABSTRACT: Patients with a
Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) pattern on their ECG can experience symptoms such
as syncope, palpitations, supraventricular tachycardia, and atrial
fibrillation, or they can be asymptomatic (aWPW). All patients with WPW,
regardless of the presence or absence of symptoms, are at risk of sudden death.
Therefore, it is recommended that younger patients with WPW undergo studies to
determine their risk. We report a previously asymptomatic WPW patient
identified as high risk for sudden death due torapid conduction down her accessory
pathway during atrial fibrillation induced during a trans-esophageal
electrophysiology study.
