Spontaneously terminating apparent ventricular fibrillation during transesophageal electrophysiological testing in infants with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome.

摘要

This article describes two infants with Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome in whom apparent VF occurred without antecedent AF or atrial flutter during routine transesophageal electrophysiological testing. Remarkably, this arrhythmia terminated spontaneously in both infants. The documentation of self-limited apparent VF, or polymorphic ventricular tachycardia close to VF, in transesophageal testing adds another dimension to the management of WPW.
