title: ["Cultural" barriers in the development of ambulatory surgery].
abstract: Several obstacles of different types seem to be a barrier to the promotion of "same day surgery": seizures of misinformed patients, local mentalities, reticence coming from different administrations, from control organizations also from general practitioners, as even a kind of reserve revealed by hospitals doctors. All these arguments are discussed and disproved.
