title: [Progress in ambulatory anesthesia applied to gynecological surgery].
abstract: Ambulatory gynecological surgery enables fast recovery of vital functions, ambulation and a relational life of quality. Patients whose disease is well-controlled at the anesthesia consultation can benefit from ambulatory procedures. Improved material and surgical practices broaden potential indications, limiting the risk of postoperative pain which can be controlled with simple analgesic protocols. The choice of the anesthesic techniques or the agents used during the intervention ensures fast recovery of higher functions. Nausea and vomiting, which may develop after returning home and compromise oral drug intake, must be prevented. More ambulatory gynecological procedures can be expected in the near future, pointing out the importance of developing more adapted medical structures.
