title: Latent pre-excitation: exposure of anterograde accessory pathway conduction during atrial fibrillation.
abstract: In three patients anterograde conduction across a previously undocumented accessory pathway was exposed by the development of atrial fibrillation. This unusual presentation illustrates the possible unmasking of the Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome by other factors in patients who have not previously demonstrated the potential for anterograde accessory pathway conduction.
