On this page you will find information about specific operations. This includes a brief description of the procedure, main indications, risks involved, usual length of stay in hospital, type of anaesthesia, usual recovery time and commonly asked questions.

It is important to remember that every patient is different and that many factors can influence the risks, possible complications and outcome.

Therefore, you should always discuss your case with the specialist treating you or seek a second opinion if you are in doubt.
