A year after the surgery myself, Im confident to say "ablation works". One thing though right after the surgery: I felt like I could always feel my heart beat. I wish there was none affected or complicated but thats it, I could always feel my heart beat.  The atrial flutter is healed but that feeling I mentioned will stay with me forever I guess. I no longer suffer from iregular beats, but i must watch for my diet because some foods re-triggers it a little bit. Overall the surgery did worked. I was 6 months in Coumadin.
