A case of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome in an Indonesian neonate born in the Departement of Obstetrics, Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital, Bandung, is reported. Tachycardia in the neonate was first noted at the age of 6 days, but the heart rate gradually decreased in 8 hours after oxygen was administered. Electrocardiographic examination revealed a Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome. A second attack of tachycardia occurred at the age of 2 months and the infant was immediately hospitalized and treated with lanoxin. Serial electrocardiographic examination still revealed the same syndrome. The management and prognosis of supraventricular tachycardia in the neonate is also discussed.

Syncope is a common manifestation of both hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome. The most common arrhythmia in HCM is ventricular tachycardia (VT) and atrial fibrillation (AF). While preexcitation provides the substrate for reentry and supraventricular tachycardia (SVT), AF is more common in patients with preexcitation than the general population. Concurrence of HCM and WPW has been reported in many cases, but whether the prognosis or severity of arrhythmia is different compared to the individual disorders remains unsettled. We report a case of HCM and Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome in a 28-year-old male Nigerian soldier presenting with recurrent syncope and lichen planus.
