Generally, Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome presents good prognosis. However, several case reports demonstrated malignant arrhythmia or sudden cardiac death as WPW syndrome's first presentation. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation using extracorporeal life support is a therapeutic option in refractory cardiac arrest. We present a WPW syndrome patient who had sudden cardiac arrest as the first presentation of the disease and treated it using extracorporeal life support with good neurologic outcome.
一般来说，预激综合征（WPW）预后良好。然而，有几例病例报告显示，恶性心律失常或心源性猝死是预激综合征的首发表现。使用体外生命支持进行心肺复苏是难治性心脏骤停的一种治疗选择。我们报告一例以心源性猝死为该疾病首发表现的预激综合征患者，并使用体外生命支持对其进行治疗，患者神经系统预后良好。
