Wolf-parkinson-white Syndrome-current Concepts in Anesthetic Practice.

Wolf-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome is a disorder of conduction system of heart caused by presence of an abnormal accessory conduction pathway between the atria and ventricles. It is associated with tachyarrhythmias diagnosed by electrocardiography (ECG). The anesthetic management of these patients is challenging as they are known to develop life threatening arrhythmias. Magnesium sulfate (MgSO4) is a good agent for control of peri-operative dysrhythmias.
