Wolff‐Parkinson‐White (WPW) syndrome is one of the most common congenital cardiac abnormalities among ventricular pre‐excitation syndromes. Radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) treatment of accessory pathways (APs) in WPW patients is an established curative therapy restoring normal atrioventricular conduction. We have not encountered any studies evaluating both the LA and LV functions of these patients before and after RFCA with three dimensional‐speckle tracking echocardiography (3D‐speckle tracking echocardiography (STE)).
