Additional information
Patients should arrive 1 day before surgery for preoperative evaluation (blood tests, imaging review, and anesthesia assessment). The procedure is performed as a laparoscopic cholecystectomy under general anesthesia and typically lasts 30-60 minutes. Within an ERAS (Enhanced Recovery After Surgery) pathway, early oral intake, multimodal pain control, and same-day mobilization are applied to support rapid recovery. Selected patients may be discharged on the same day, while most are discharged within 24 hours. Patients usually return to daily activities after discharging from the hospital. Follow-up is arranged within 5–7 days, including telemedicine if needed for international patients.
