Successful catheter ablation for a patient with both Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome and sustained atrial tachycardia has not been reported. Wedescribe a patient with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome associated with sustained atrial tachycardia, in whoman atrioventricular accessory pathway and an intra-atrial reentrant circuit were successfully ablated in a single session. Radio frequency catheter ablation for the left-sided atrioventricular accessory pathway was performed via the trans-septal
