McTominay, who joined Napoli from Manchester United, underwent the cardiac procedure in what the club confirmed as a successful operation. Medical staff have outlined a recovery timeline that will see the 27-year-old return to training activities within a fortnight.
The midfielder's absence will impact Napoli's squad depth as they prepare for their midweek European fixture against Arsenal in the Champions League. His unavailability for the high-profile encounter represents a notable gap in the Italian club's midfield options during a critical phase of the continental competition.
The Scottish international has been a regular fixture in Napoli's lineup since his summer transfer from Old Trafford. The club has not disclosed further details regarding the specific nature of the procedure or any extended timeline for his competitive return beyond the initial recovery period.
