| Popis: |
The feasibility of performing breast reduction surgery on an ambulatory basis was evaluated in a prospective study. Of 64 patients presenting for breast reduction surgery, 50 were selected as suitable for day surgery (78%). Of these patients, all were able to be discharged on the day of surgery. The study has shown that it is safe and appropriate to perform breast reduction on an ambulatory basis. Patient recovery is rapid and the complication rate is equivalent to that of other types of breast surgery. |
