Implication

Supports surgical accessory pathway interruption in refractory type B WPW; leaves open need for prospective validation before clinical adoption.

Structured PICO

Population

Two human subjects with type B Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome (WPW), one dog with spontaneous type A WPW, and a third human patient with atypical WPW

Intervention

Electrophysiologic study and surgical separation of right atrium and right ventricle at the site of pre-excitation

Outcome

Sequence of atrioventricular activation and effect of surgical separation

Electrophysiologic mapping and surgical interruption of accessory pathways can successfully normalize activation and abolish tachycardia in patients with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome.
