Hi Carol, and welcome to the board. If you have a chance and would like to, please post a little more of your history, and information about Baystate Medical Ctr. and who is doing your surgery.
You probably read the reply I posted to Sandy. I don't have much more to add.
I guess Sandy and You will be the first two on the board to have the maze just by the cryo method. My surgeon in 1998 used the cryo method for a certain portion of the heart where they don't want to cut. I think all surgeons use a alternative to cut and sew in certain areas of the heart.
Take care and keep posting on the board. We like to hear from all, and will try to answer what questions we can. All the information from the post on the board itself is usually from someone's personal experience, and not a medical fact.
Best wishes and prayers.
