Radiofrequency (RF) catheter ablation has become a standard treatment in symptomatic patients with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome [1]. In general, this technique is associated with a high success rate and a low complication rate in both adult and pediatric patients [2–4]. Although a certain risk of inadvertent atrioventricular block may be associated with RF catheter ablation of right-sided and septal
