Most of the Nissen fundoplications are done laparoscopically. The average stay is 1 night in the hospital.
Maybe, 2-7 days.
Typically patients are discharged to home 24 to 48hrs after Nissen Fundoplication. However the total recovary time could be anywhere between six to eight weeks
Typically just one night in the hospital.
Hi, Dr. Willkomm here. You would need to spend one night in the hospital for observation after a routine Laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication procedure.
