Transseptal approach for catheter ablation of left-sided accessory pathways in children with Marfan syndrome: A case report.
World Journal of Clinical Cases 2023 March 27
BACKGROUND: Left-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 SUMMARY: A 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.
CONCLUSION: The 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.
