| Abstract | BACKGROUNDLeft-sided accessory pathways (APs) can be accessed with either a transaortic (TA) or transseptal approach (TS). For children with Marfan syndrome (MFS) who have aortic disease, the use of TA can aggravate the disease, making TS the best choice for these patients.CASE SUMMARYA 10-year-old girl was hospitalized because of intermittent heart palpitations and chest tightness. She was diagnosed with MFS, supraventricular tachycardia, Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome, and left-sided AP was detected by cardiac electrophysiological. Catheter ablation was successfully performed via TS under the guidance of the Ensite system. During the follow-up, no recurrence or complications occurred.CONCLUSIONThe TS for catheter ablation of left-sided APs can be considered in children with MFS. Adequate evaluation and selection of the appropriate puncture site are particularly important. |
