Cauterization or Cryoballoon? The Pros and Cons of Each for AFib

Cauterization treats complex AFib but has risks like heart or esophagus damage. Cryoballoon is safer but limited to the first wall, often requiring additional procedures using cauterization for advanced cases. The right method depends on your AFib’s complexity and your doctor’s expertise.

Indeed, you mention up to six walls. Maybe explain that part too.?

my cryoablation reached more than the first wall. Update your info.
