Ambulatory Laparoscopic SurgeryCleveland Clinic Foundation, Cleveland, OH
Cleveland Clinic Foundation, Cleveland, OH Laparoscopic procedures are becoming routine and commonplace.

Their spectrum is continually expanding. Also, the trend towards shorter hospital stays, in part driven by the advent of laparoscopic procedures, may alter traditional surgical dogma regarding length of stay. Copyright © 1999 by W B.
