ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
Ebstein's anomaly is the most commonly occurring congenital defect associated with the Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome. In patients with Ebstein's anomaly and supraventricular tachycardia, the absence of right bundle branch block (RBBB) in sinus rhythm is a highly sensitive and specific indicator of the presence of an ipsilateral accessory AP. CASE We present an electrophysiology case of a patient with Ebstein's anomaly and 3 ipsilateral accessory pathways. After ablation was performed, RBBB was evident.CONCLUSION:
In patients with Ebstein's anomaly and supraventricular tachycardia, the absence of a RBBB pattern in the surface ECG after RFCA should raise suspicion for the presence of multiple accessory pathways.Palavras-chave
