    Abstract:
    One hundred and eighty-two patients who underwent ambulatory orthopaedic surgery received a questionnaire, 168 (92%) answered. Fourteen patients (7.7%) had to stay in hospital for one to three nights. One hundred and forty-seven (87.5%) found it acceptable to be discharged the same day, and 145 (86.3%) would prefer ambulatory to stationary treatment in case of new surgery.
