Abstract

Accessory atrioventricular pathways classically possess neither decremental conduction nor functional du–ality. This report details an accessory pathway in which functional longitudinal dissociation, with decremental ventriculoatrial conduction in each component, was observed after, but not before, administration of the antiarrhythmic drug recainam.

Key Words: Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome • accessory pathway • functional longitudinal disassociation • decremental conduction • recainam
