Abstract
- Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome is a relatively common electrical disorder showing paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia. However, the familial form of WPW syndrome is rare, and is usually inherited as a Mendelian autosomal dominant trait. Here, we describe a family where a father and son both showed WPW syndrome. Their conditions were treated with radiofrequency ablation.
