Background:

Results:
We found 55 different procedures in a total of 30,174. Of them, 79.7% in women and 20.3% in men. The most common age was between 25 and 29 years. The ten first ones were cholecystectomy, appendectomy, total abdominal laparoscopic hysterectomy, procedures to create esophago-gastric sphincter competence, unilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, partial cholecystectomy, ovarian resection, umbilical hernia repair, incidental appendectomy and unilateral oophorectomy (94.6%). The States with the major number are Mexico City, State of Mexico, Jalisco, Guanajuato and Sonora.
