ABSTRACT
We present the case of an 18-year-old male patient with diagnosis of Wolff Parkinson-White syndrome due to a left free wall accessory pathway. We performed an electrophysiology study and transseptal punction guided by transesophageal echocardiogram to via access to the left atrium. We performed successful radiofrequency ablation of the accessory pathway, observing disappearance of the delta wave on the first attempt. There were no complications. In follow-up a 10 months, the patient had no clinical nor electrocardiographic evidence of recurrence. Transseptal radiofrequency ablation is an alternative for treatment of some arrhythmias localized in the left side of the heart.
