General Definition of Minor Surgery
Minor surgery is characterized by its low risk of complications, being minimally invasive (avoiding the opening of major body cavities), reliance on local anesthesia or minimal sedation, and being performed on an outpatient basis (allowing the patient to return home the same day), resulting in a quick recovery and reduced scarring.
