Abstract
A 5 week old infant was successfully treated with use of a radio-frequency pacemaker to terminate recurrent Wolff-Parkinson-White tachycardia. In this instance temporary electronic pacing and later implantation of a permanent pacemaker was lifesaving. The mechanism for termination of Wolff-Parkinson-White tachycardia by pacemaker stimulation is reviewed. This method may have application in any type of recurrent tachycardia in infants as well as adults.
