Abstract

Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome is the most common form of ventricular preexcitation. Electrocardiographic alterations in Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome may simulate myocardial infarction. Herein we report a case with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome whose electrocardiographic findings were suggestive of acute myocardial infarction.

Özet

Wolff Parkinson White Sendromu (WPW), ventriküler preeksitasyon sendromlarının en sık görülen tipidir. WPW sendromunda oluşan elektrokardiyografik değişiklikler bazen akut miyokardial infarktüsü taklit edebilir ve ayırıcı tanıda sorun yaşanabilir. Burada, elektrokardiyografik bulguları akut miyokard infarktüsünü taklit eden bir WPW sendromu olgusu sunulmuştur.
