Maze is used to treat severe cases of atrial fibrillation (a specific kind of arrhythmia) that do not respond to medicine or other procedures. A traditional maze surgery requires the chest to be opened and the heart to be stopped. A mini-maze is done with small incisions and special surgical tools. This often leads to shorter recovery time and lower risk of infection.
