Abstract:
:Radiofrequency catheter ablation has established as the first line therapy for the curative treatment of patients with accessory pathway. Atrioventricular accessory pathways irrespective of the exact localisation can be successfully ablated in more than 90% of all cases. Severe complications associated with the ablation procedure are rare and occur in approximately 2% of patients treated. The recurrence rate after successful ablation is approximately 8 to 10%. Recurrence of accessory pathway conduction occurs almost exclusively within the first 3 months following successful ablation, late recurrences are rare. Patients with variants of accessory pathways such as atriofascicular pathways or retrogradely conducting accessory pathways with decremental conduction properties can also be cured with a high success rate. Because of its well balanced efficacy-risk profile radiofrequency catheter ablation should be recommended as the first line therapy to all symptomatic patients with accessory pathway.
