[Wolff-Parkinson-White during a basedowienne thyrotoxicose (author's transl)].
The case reported here consisted of an association of a Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome (WPW) with thyrotoxicosis, with simultaneous recovery by thyroidectomy; this lead the authors to review 13 previous cases in the literature. The physiopathologic discussion emphasized several points: 1) the specific action of thyroid hormones, 2) the hypothesis of the possible existence of inapparent pathways of pre-exitation in most subjects and 3) a simple practical attitude to adopt in all Wolff-Parkinson-White cases especially when rapid.
