As performed at The Ohio State University, the five-box thoracoscopic maze is a closed-chest, beating-heart, truly minimally invasive procedure. This innovative surgical treatment approach is teamed with comprehensive testing to assure that all potential causes are completely treated. Outcomes in patients who have had the five-box thoracoscopic maze procedure compare very favorably to those who have undergone catheter ablation or other types of maze surgery such as the Wolf Mini-Maze. In the heirarchy of atrial fibrillation treatment, the five-box thoracoscopic maze procedure represents an advanced treatment with a cure rate in excess of 95%.
