Catheter ablation in a patient with a congenital giant right atrial diverticulum presented as Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome.

A young woman symptomatic for tachycardia showed right ventricular preexcitation on the surface ECG with a pattern during induced atrial fibrillation suggestive of multiple APs. Noninvasive imaging techniques performed prior to catheter ablation demonstrated the presence of a giant right atrial diverticulum confirmed by hemodynamic procedure. This structure functioned as an enormous accessory AP. We performed catheter ablation of this pathway using a special 4-mm multipolar catheter inside the diverticulum. This is the first case of such as anomaly being successfully treated with catheter ablation.
