Abstract
Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome is a relatively rare cardiac rhythm disorder entity encountered during pregnancy. However, its exacerbation under this physiological condition could be responsible, in certain cases, for life-threatening arrhythmias compromising both maternal and foetal prognosis. We report the observations of 03 pregnant women, without past medical history, presenting to the emergency room for palpitations related to a Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome, complicated in one case with foetal death. The substantial severity of the WPW syndrome during pregnancy requires a prompt and adequate management strategy, based on a multidisciplinary cooperation between obstetricians, cardiologists and neonatologists.
