Key result
Radiofrequency ablation within a coronary sinus diverticulum successfully eliminated the accessory pathway in a 2-year-old child with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome.
Radiofrequency ablation can successfully eliminate an accessory pathway located within a coronary sinus diverticulum in a pediatric patient with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome.
May support ablation feasibility in rare pediatric WPW anatomy; hypothesis-generating and requires confirmation before practice change.
A 2-year-old child having Wolff–Parkinson–White syndrome presented with recurrent drug-refractory tachycardia episodes. On electrophysiological analysis, a coronary sinus diverticulum was discovered. The accessory pathway was successfully eliminated by radiofrequency ablation within the diverticulum.
