Identification of the AP affects the outcome of catheter ablation.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Case summary<\/jats:title>\n We report a case of WPW syndrome and paroxysmal atrial fibrillation in a 65-year-old man. Wolff\u2013Parkinson\u2013White syndrome Type B was suspected from lead V1, but when two-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography (2D-STE) was performed, a decrease in regional strain was observed in the anterior basal wall of the left ventricle. We identified the earliest site of atrioventricular conduction, and improvement in the regional strain at the site of ablation was observed after successful AP ablation.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Discussion<\/jats:title>\n Various echocardiographic techniques have been investigated as non-invasive alternatives for AP localization. Longitudinal 2D-STE accurately identified contractile abnormalities associated with the AP, allowing us to non-invasively estimate the localization of the AP in WPW syndrome.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1093\/ehjcr\/ytab078","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,3,8]],"date-time":"2021-03-08T22:17:05Z","timestamp":1615241825000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["A case of Wolff\u2013Parkinson\u2013White syndrome in which two-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography was useful for identifying the location of the accessory atrioventricular pathway"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"5","author":[{"given":"Junya","family":"Tanabe","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Cardiology, Shimane University Faculty of Medicine, 89-1 Enya-cho, Izumo 693-8501, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7625-7553","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Nobuhide","family":"Watanabe","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Cardiology, Shimane University Faculty of Medicine, 89-1 Enya-cho, Izumo 693-8501, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kazuto","family":"Yamaguchi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Cardiology, Shimane University Faculty of Medicine, 89-1 Enya-cho, Izumo 693-8501, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8910-8389","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kazuaki","family":"Tanabe","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Cardiology, Shimane University Faculty of Medicine, 89-1 Enya-cho, Izumo 693-8501, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,3,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"2021030822165965800_ytab078-B1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"984","DOI":"10.1016\/0002-8703(87)90061-5","article-title":"The localization of bypass tracts in the Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome from the surface electrocardiogram","volume":"113","author":"Reddy","year":"1987","journal-title":"Am Heart J"},{"key":"2021030822165965800_ytab078-B2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"725","DOI":"10.1007\/s10554-011-9880-8","article-title":"The use of echocardiography in Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome","volume":"28","author":"Cai","year":"2012","journal-title":"Int J Cardiovasc Imaging"},{"key":"2021030822165965800_ytab078-B3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1605","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJM199106063242301","article-title":"Catheter ablation of accessory atrioventricular pathways (Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome) by radiofrequency current","volume":"324","author":"Jackman","year":"1991","journal-title":"N Engl J Med"},{"key":"2021030822165965800_ytab078-B4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"840","DOI":"10.1093\/ehjci\/jes048","article-title":"Two-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography for atrioventricular accessory pathways persistent ventricular pre-excitation despite successful radiofrequency ablation","volume":"13","author":"Delelis","year":"2012","journal-title":"Eur Heart J Cardiovasc Imaging"},{"key":"2021030822165965800_ytab078-B5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"539","DOI":"10.1016\/j.amjcard.2010.03.066","article-title":"Detection and quantification by deformation imaging of the functional impact of septal compared to free wall preexcitation in the Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome","volume":"106","author":"De Boeck","year":"2010","journal-title":"Am J Cardiol"},{"key":"2021030822165965800_ytab078-B6","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1735","DOI":"10.1016\/S0735-1097(99)00068-6","article-title":"Mapping of regional myocardial strain and work during ventricular pacing: experimental study using magnetic resonance imaging tagging","volume":"33","author":"Prinzen","year":"1999","journal-title":"J Am Coll Cardiol"},{"key":"2021030822165965800_ytab078-B7","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"e004532","DOI":"10.1161\/CIRCIMAGING.116.004532","article-title":"Noninvasive localization of accessory pathways in Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome by three-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography","volume":"9","author":"Ishizu","year":"2016","journal-title":"Circ Cardiovasc Imaging"},{"key":"2021030822165965800_ytab078-B8","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1047","DOI":"10.1253\/circj.CJ-20-0239","article-title":"Three-dimensional echocardiography.
