Supra Ventricular Tachycardia in A Pregnant Woman with Wolff-Parkinson- White Syndrome

We present a case of Wolff-Parkinson White (WPW) Syndrome in pregnancy. A 26 yrs old primigravida who was asymptomatic prior to pregnancy ,who suddenly developed Palpitations at 20 weeks gestation and diagnosed to have WPW syndrome and was treated with Adenosine, got admitted in our hospital with labor pains and delivered by outlet forceps without any attacks of SVT. But on the first postnatal day, she developed SVT and was managed effectively. The diagnosis and etiologic consideration of this syndrome in association with pregnancy are reviewed and concluded that antenatal patients presenting with symptoms of palpitations, breathlessness, syncopal attacks should be evaluated properly to arrive at a diagnosis,should be closely monitored during antenatal checkups and managed efficiently during antepartum, intrapartum and postnatal periods.
