Is papilloma surgery an inpatient or outpatient procedure?

Papilloma surgery is an outpatient procedure, according to Emory Healthcare. Patients with laryngeal papilloma can undergo pulsed KTP laser therapy that surgeons perform on an outpatient basis, Rather than using general anesthesia, doctors use numbing agents, and patients are able to drive themselves home right after the surgery.

When removing human papillomavirus cervical lesions, surgeons perform the loop electrosurgical excision procedure either in the operating room or in the surgeon's office, according to Johns Hopkins Medicine. Surgeons use cauterization during outpatient procedures to remove eyelid papillomas, explains Kadrmas Eye Care New England. A papilloma is a benign, round, smooth growth on the skin.
