Abstract

A 34years old man was admitted for sudden onset of palpitation and dyspnoea. A 12 lead ecg showed regular wide complex tachycardia . After reverting to sinus rhytham ecg showed short pr interval,delta wave and st t changes suggestive of an accessory pathway.Electrophysiological study was carried out ,pathway was mappped and ablated. We report this case because of the presence of multiple pathway in this patient ,unusual presentation as wide complex tachycardia, availability of defenitive treatment and to emphasis on the timely referral to prevent sudden cardiac death.
