Key Points

Coronary sinus diverticulum was identified during ablation for wolff-parkinson-white syndrome, indicating a rare anatomical variation.
The case emphasizes the need for careful anatomical evaluation during accessory pathway ablation procedures.
Wolff-parkinson-white syndrome is a condition associated with abnormal electrical pathways, necessitating such surgical interventions.
Understanding diverticulum presence may improve surgical outcomes and patient safety during cardiac procedures.
