Abstract
A 48 year old female presented with a long history of palpitations and syncopal episodes. His bundle electrogram studies were performed in order to evaluate the conduction system. The electrocardiogram (ECG) revealed normal PR and QRS intervals, while the unpaced His electrogram was normal. With atrial pacing rates of 110 to 180 beats/min, the AH and HV intervals remained essentially unchanged. This signifies that there was an accessory conduction pathway which bypassed the AV node. Thus, pre-excitation can not be eliminated as a diagnostic possibility even if the ECG is normal.
