Sumario:Accessory pathway Wolff‐Parkinson‐white is sometimes not manifested till later in life, as the conduction properties of AV node become slower, other mechanisms are also possible. Brugada pattern on EKG can be associated with various underlying clinical conditions, such as mechanical compression of RVOT by tumors. It is essential to have high index of suspicion for flecainide toxicity when encountering arrhythmias in patients taking the drug.
