Lown-Ganong-Levine syndrome is an extremely rare conduction disorder characterized by a short PR interval (less than or equal to 120 ms) with normal QRS complex on electrocardiogram associated with the occurrence of episodes of atrial tachyarrythmias (e.g. atrial fibrillation, atrial tachycardia). Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome is the best known LGL syndrome.

Thank you for your reply. I have searched the Lown-Ganong-Levine syndrome and understood it is different from the WPW syndrome and that ablation will not help. Hmm? Is that incorrect?
