Early outcomes of usage of cryoFORM® probe for cryomaze procedure in congenital heart surgery.

Cryomaze procedure can be applied in congenital heart diseases with acceptable arrhythmia-free rates by selecting the appropriate materials and suitable lesion sets. The application of cryomaze in heterotaxy patients can be challenging due to differences in the conduction system and complex anatomy. Consensus with the electrophysiology team about the choice of the right-left or biatrial maze procedure is mandatory for operational success.
