Objectives: In this study, we report outpatient surgical procedures in an ear nose and throat ENT clinic of a university hospital for the first time in Turkey. Material and Methods: All patients who were operated between January 2012 and December 2013 by our ENT surgeons either in central operating room or in outpatient surgery unit were retrospectively analyzed. Age of the patients, type of operation, type of anesthesia, and the time of discharge were recorded. Results: The highest number of outpatient surgical procedures was in the 1-18 age group. The most widely used type of anesthesia was general anesthesia, while adeno/tonsillectomy and tympanostomy tube insertion were the most commonly performed operations. The total number of surgeries was 2,714 and 379 13.96% of these patients were discharged on the same day. Conclusion: Outpatient surgery has become widespread in the past three decades, particularly. However, in our study, the ratio of outpatient surgery to all surgical interventions was very low, compared to developed countries.

Amaç: Bu çalışmada Türkiye’de ilk kez bir üniversite hastanesinin kulak burun boğaz KBB kliniğinde uygulanan günübirlik cerrahi işlemler bildirildi.Gereç ve Yöntemler: Ocak 2012 - Aralık 2013 tarihleri arasında KBB cerrahlarımız tarafından merkezi ameliyathane veya günübirlik cerrahi biriminde ameliyat edilen tüm hastalar geriye dönük olarak incelendi. Hastaların yaşı, ameliyat türü, anestezi şekli ve taburculuk süreleri kaydedildi.Bulgular: En fazla günübirlik cerrahi işlem sayısı 1-18 yaş grubundaydı. En sık kullanılan anestezi şekli genel anestezi iken, adeno/tonsillektomi ile timpanostomi tüpü takılması en sık yapılan ameliyatlardı. Toplam ameliyat sayısı 2714 idi ve bu hastaların 379’u %13.96 aynı gün taburcu edildi.Sonuç: Günübirlik cerrahi özellikle son 30 yılda giderek yaygınlaşmıştır. Ancak, çalışmamızda günübirlik cerrahinin tüm cerrahi girişimlere oranı, gelişmiş ülkelere kıyasla, çok düşük bulunmuştur
