| wolffian duct carcinoma | A rare tumour of the female genital tract, most often the ovary, formerly considered to be derived from mesonephric rests. Two varieties are recognised: (1) clear cell carcinoma, so called because of its histologic resemblance to renal cell carcinoma, and now considered to be of muellerian duct derivation and (2) an embryonal tumour (called also endodermal sinus tumour and yolk sac tumour), occurring chiefly in children. The latter variety may also arise in the testis. (12 Dec 1998) |

| Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome |
A specific type of heart rhythm abnormality. Patients with the WPW syndrome have an accessory pathway connecting the upper and lower chamber of the heart. These patients may develop a rapid heartbeat caused by a "short circuit" heart arrhythmia. WPW syndrome also may cause dangerous heart arrhythmias.
