What is cardiac cryoablation?

Cardiac cryoablation is a minimally invasive interventional procedure used to permanently treat certain heart rhythm disorders by applying extreme cold (-80°C to -90°C). This technique is considered a precise and often safer alternative to traditional thermal radiofrequency ablation.

Using a specialized catheter, the physician carefully guides a cryotherapy probe to the heart, where it freezes and selectively destroys small areas of abnormal cardiac tissue responsible for irregular electrical signals that cause arrhythmias.

Patients value cardiac cryoablation for its high safety profile and fast recovery time, with a low risk of post-procedural complications.

In Turkey, specialized cardiac centers provide personalized follow-up care after the procedure, allowing patients to return to their daily activities with confidence and peace of mind.

Who can benefit from cardiac cryoablation?

Cardiac cryoablation is a targeted therapeutic option for patients with specific heart rhythm disorders, particularly when medication is ineffective or poorly tolerated.

This procedure may be recommended for patients with:

Cardiac cryoablation offers a minimally invasive solution for adult patients seeking to avoid major surgery while maximizing treatment effectiveness. Before any procedure, our cardiologists in Turkey perform a comprehensive evaluation to confirm that you are a suitable candidate for this innovative treatment.

To determine whether cryoablation is right for you, Turquie Santé's partner specialists offer a personalized assessment either remotely or on-site.

How is cardiac cryoablation performed in Turkey? (step by step)

The cardiac cryoablation process in Turkey follows a standardized protocol in high-level electrophysiology centers, designed to maximize patient safety, procedural accuracy, and comfort, particularly for international patients.

Evaluation and planning (1–2 days before the procedure)

Before the intervention, the cardiac electrophysiologist reviews your medical records, analyzes previous tests, and confirms the indication for cryoablation. If needed, a preliminary 3D electroanatomical mapping may be performed to improve procedural precision.

You will then undergo:

At the end of this phase, you receive a clear, personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific arrhythmia.

The day of the procedure

On the day of treatment, cardiac cryoablation typically lasts 2 to 4 hours and follows a well-defined sequence:

StepDescriptionPatient experience
1. Preparation & anesthesiaLocal anesthesia with light sedation is administered. Continuous monitoring is set up (ECG, blood pressure, oxygen saturation).You remain relaxed, comfortable, and pain-free throughout the procedure.
2. Vascular accessA femoral vein puncture is performed under ultrasound guidance to insert the catheter safely.Minimal discomfort at the access site.
3. Catheter navigation & mappingThe catheter is guided into the heart chambers using fluoroscopy and, when necessary, advanced 3D electroanatomical mapping.No sensation inside the heart; you remain under close monitoring.
4. Cryoenergy applicationThe cryoablation balloon delivers extreme cold (up to –80°C) in cycles of 4 to 8 minutes to permanently isolate abnormal electrical pathways.You may feel slight pressure, but no pain.
5. Rhythm verificationThe cardiologist confirms the effectiveness of the ablation and the stability of the heart rhythm before catheter removal.Continuous reassurance from the medical team.
6. Early dischargeAfter observation, most patients are discharged the same day or the following day based on medical advice.Rapid recovery and early return to normal activities.

Immediate post-procedure monitoring

After the intervention, strict bed rest for 4 to 6 hours is required to prevent bleeding at the puncture site. During this period, you are continuously monitored in a specialized unit with:

  • Cardiac monitoring.
  • A follow-up echocardiogram to rule out complications.

Once your condition is stable, mobilization is gradual, and your first steps are taken under the supervision of the medical team.

Recovery and return to normal life after cardiac cryoablation

Cardiac cryoablation offers one of the fastest recovery times among treatments for heart rhythm disorders. Most patients can resume their daily activities within a few days, and in some cases, as early as the next day, while benefiting from attentive follow-up care from the medical team.

First 24–48 hours

Recovery is usually straightforward and without major complications. You may experience:

  • Mild fatigue during the first day.
  • Slight discomfort at the femoral puncture site.
  • Occasional palpitations, which are normal as your heart adjusts.

Your cardiologist will provide essential instructions regarding rest, hydration, and gradually resuming daily activities.

Heart rhythm stabilization phase

During the 2 to 6 weeks following the procedure, your heart gradually adjusts its electrical activity. During this phase, it is common to notice:

  • Temporary palpitations.
  • Increased sensitivity to stress or fatigue.
  • Minor fluctuations in heart rhythm.

These are normal signs of electrical healing. Depending on your individual case, a temporary antiarrhythmic medication may be prescribed to support rhythm stabilization.

Resuming daily activities

Cardiac cryoablation allows for a gradual and rapid return to normal life:

  • Light work: typically 2–5 days after the procedure.
  • Walking and gentle activities: as early as the next day.
  • Intense exercise or sports: after cardiologist approval, usually 2–4 weeks.
  • Air travel: possible after 48 hours if your condition is stable.

Turquie Santé team tailors these timelines to your individual situation to ensure safety, comfort, and a smooth recovery.

Post-procedure follow-up

Follow-up care after cardiac cryoablation is essential to ensure optimal recovery:

  • Clinical and ECG checks in the days immediately following the procedure.
  • Follow-up consultations, either in-person or remotely, based on your needs.
  • Extended heart monitoring (Holter) if necessary to evaluate heart rhythm.

With the support of Turquie Santé, you are guided at every step, even after returning home. Your medical coordinator remains available to answer questions and share your test results with your cardiologist.

Most patients achieve a stable heart rhythm and improved quality of life very quickly.

Cardiac cryoablation allows you to take control of your daily life without major restrictions, supported by structured medical follow-up and personalized care tailored to your individual needs.

Risks and success rates of cardiac cryoablation

Cardiac cryoablation is considered a safe and effective procedure, especially when performed in specialized centers by experienced teams. Like any medical intervention, it carries some risks, but they are generally low and well-managed.

Potential risks and complications

While serious complications are rare, it is important to be aware of the possible risks:

Risk/complication

Description

Frequency/notes

Bleeding or hematoma

At the puncture site (groin or jugular vein).

Usually mild and temporary

Transient palpitations

Occur in the days following the procedure as the heart adjusts.

Common and generally harmless

Temporary heart block

May require short-term monitoring or, in rare cases, a temporary pacemaker.

Rare

Infection

Due to strict aseptic protocols in Turkish centers.

Extremely rare

Success rates

The results of cardiac cryoablation are very encouraging:

  • Paroxysmal atrial fibrillation: 70–90% of patients regain normal rhythm after a single session
  • Supraventricular or atrial tachycardias: >85% success, with long-term resolution of arrhythmias
  • Symptom improvement: most patients notice immediate benefits—less fatigue, fewer palpitations, and better overall quality of life

Personalized post-procedure follow-up further enhances long-term success and allows any recurrence to be detected quickly.
