A member asked:
How safe is it to have an ablation surgery for supraventricular tachycardia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pretty safe: If you do in university major teaching hospital and the md does this a lot, your complication should be low around 1%. So try to do at a place that the md only does this (cardiac electrophysiologist) for the living. Then you have a good chance to be well without any complications.
