Radiofrequency lesions can, theoretically, be the substrate for new persistent arrhythmias. As far as we know, this has never previously been encountered after transcatheter ablation of accessory pathways. A child with Wolff–Parkinson–White syndrome was referred for radiofrequency catheter ablation of a left-sided accessory pathway. After successful ablation of the accessory pathway using a retrograde transaortic approach, the child developed an incessant wide QRS complex tachycardia at slow rate that was resistant to pharmacologic interventions. The focus of the tachycardia was identical to the ventricular site of insertion of the eliminated accessory pathway.

AbstractA 2-month-old baby was resuscitated from ventricular fibrillation attributed to a concurrent chaotic atrial tachycardia with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome. He underwent successful radiofrequency catheter ablation of an accessory pathway. Throughout the 4-year follow-up after the procedure, the boy remained free of any drugs, was in sinus rhythm without ventricular pre-excitation and his growth and development were normal.

Abstract Introduction. Radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFA) is 1st line treatment in symptomatic adult patients with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome (WPW). Patients with WPW are often quoted a high success rate for RFA but does this reflect reality? There is a paucity of recent literature and ongoing service developments in the UK may have a negative impact on success by reducing individual operator experience of adult WPW cases (i.e. increasing numbers of cardiac electrophysiologists in each department, patients more likely to undergo RFA as children). In contrast, technological developments (e.g. 3D mapping, steerable sheaths) may have a positive impact on success of RFA in WPW. Methods. We collected data on all patients with WPW scheduled for 1st time ablation between Jan 2006 and Dec 2018. All patients undergoing re-do RFA during this time were excluded. For comparison, we divided this timeframe into three periods: 2006-9, 2010-13 and 2014-18. Results. The number of patients scheduled for RFA and the outcome is listed in the Table. The overall success rate was 86.5% and this figure remained constant throughout the 13 year time-frame. Significant complications occurred in 1.17% of cases. 19.9% of patients scheduled for an ablation had no ablation attempted for various reasons (‘safe’ pathway, proximity to AV node etc). Conclusion. In our centre, the number of adult cases of WPW scheduled for RFA year-on-year remains constant. The complication rate is in line with published literature. The RFA success rate is lower than the published data. As expected, success rate of RFA for WPW varies according to accessory pathway location. 1 in 5 cases scheduled for ablation did not proceed to ablation. This highlights an area where more effective resource planning from the outset can be undertaken.
