The danger of this type of accessory pathway resides in the presence of a short refractory period. An intermittent pattern in sinus rhythm (onset during a bradycardia) is indicative of a long refractory period and of its benign nature.","commentary_ecg":"This young patient has an accessory pathway with intermittent anterograde conduction. Conduction in an accessory pathway operates on the all-or-nothing principle: the bundle is either in a refractory period or not, and the impulse is or is not transmitted to the ventricles. The anterograde refractory period of this pathway is long, a slow atrial activity is thus necessary for the pre-excitation to become visible. During higher rate, the electrocardiogram is normal (phase 3 block). This type of accessory pathway is considered benign as a long refractory period protects the patient from the risk of sudden death secondary to rapid atrial fibrillation conducted by the pathway. On the other hand, this particular pattern is associated with a short retrograde refractory period of the pathway and this patient presented with orthodromic reentry tachycardia (good retrograde conduction) with a disabling symptomatology. Given the frequency of the seizures (daily tachycardias), the patient underwent the ablation of an anteroseptal pathway.","ecg_info_post_answer":"<img class=\"alignnone wp-image-10919 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiocases.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/trace-7-2-ecg-en-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" \/><img class=\"alignnone wp-image-10918 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiocases.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/trace-7-2-2-ecg-en-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" \/>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.0 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Trace 7.2: Intermittent pattern of ventricular pre-excitation - Cardiocases<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/cardiocases.com\/fr\/ecg_case\/trace-7-2-intermittent-pattern-of-ventricular-pre-excitation\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"fr_FR\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Trace 7.2: Intermittent pattern of ventricular pre-excitation - Cardiocases\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/cardiocases.com\/fr\/ecg_case\/trace-7-2-intermittent-pattern-of-ventricular-pre-excitation\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Cardiocases\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2026-07-02T11:49:39+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/cardiocases.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/trace-7-2-ecg-scaled-e1782933736353.jpeg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"2360\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"1330\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Dur\u00e9e de lecture estim\u00e9e\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/cardiocases.com\\\/ecg_case\\\/trace-7-2-intermittent-pattern-of-ventricular-pre-excitation\\\/\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/cardiocases.com\\\/ecg_case\\\/trace-7-2-intermittent-pattern-of-ventricular-pre-excitation\\\/\",\"name\":\"Trace 7.2: Intermittent pattern of ventricular pre-excitation - Cardiocases\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/cardiocases.com\\\/#website\"},\"primaryImageOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/cardiocases.com\\\/ecg_case\\\/trace-7-2-intermittent-pattern-of-ventricular-pre-excitation\\\/#primaryimage\"},\"image\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/cardiocases.com\\\/ecg_case\\\/trace-7-2-intermittent-pattern-of-ventricular-pre-excitation\\\/#primaryimage\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/cardiocases.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2026\\\/03\\\/trace-7-2-ecg-scaled-e1782933736353.jpeg\",\"datePublished\":\"2026-06-29T02:32:46+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2026-07-02T11:49:39+00:00\",\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/cardiocases.com\\\/ecg_case\\\/trace-7-2-intermittent-pattern-of-ventricular-pre-excitation\\\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"fr-FR\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\\\/\\\/cardiocases.com\\\/ecg_case\\\/trace-7-2-intermittent-pattern-of-ventricular-pre-excitation\\\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"inLanguage\":\"fr-FR\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/cardiocases.com\\\/ecg_case\\\/trace-7-2-intermittent-pattern-of-ventricular-pre-excitation\\\/#primaryimage\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/cardiocases.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2026\\\/03\\\/trace-7-2-ecg-scaled-e1782933736353.jpeg\",\"contentUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/cardiocases.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2026\\\/03\\\/trace-7-2-ecg-scaled-e1782933736353.jpeg\",\"width\":2360,\"height\":1330},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/cardiocases.com\\\/ecg_case\\\/trace-7-2-intermittent-pattern-of-ventricular-pre-excitation\\\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\\\/\\\/cardiocases.com\\\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Trace 7.2: Intermittent pattern of ventricular pre-excitation\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/cardiocases.com\\\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/cardiocases.com\\\/\",\"name\":\"Cardiocases\",\"description\":\"Real cardiac device traces, pacemaker &amp;
