Brief Answer:
WPW syndrome is potentially curable.
Detailed Answer:
Hi Sir,
I understand your query and concern.
All cases of WPW syndrome are not dangerous.Many of them have excellent treatment options.
The exact type of WPW syndrome can be assessed through Electro-physiological study(EP study) which identifies the abnormal conduction tract involved.
Radio frequency ablation will be the treatment of choice to ablate the abnormal tract involved.
Good Anti arrhythmic drugs are available to treat this disorder.
So I advise you to consult an expert interventional cardiologist.
