Wolff-Parkinson White Syndrome and Hair Transplants
Hi, thank you for providing your blog as a source of information. I’m a 40 y.o. male and recently had an appointment for a transplant to correct some mild thinning in the frontal and temple area… approximately 800 grafts. I was literally minutes from the procedure when the doctor learned that I was diagnosed with Wolf Parkinson White syndrome as a teen and informed me that he would not continue with the transplant. From a providers perspective, is this the consensus of the industry as a whole or are there still transplant options available to me? Thanks in advance
There is no contraindication to an outpatient surgery (such as a hair transplant procedure) for patients with WPW. Moreover, if you were diagnosed with WPW in your teenage years, I would assume you have had it treated with ablation. If you were not treated with ablation, I would think you should be followed by a cardiologist.
