No, a D&C (dilation and curettage) is considered a minor surgery.
According to the provided reference, a D&C procedure:
- Is typically done on an outpatient basis, allowing you to go home the same day.
- May be performed in a doctor's office, surgery center, hospital, or clinic.
- Involves receiving an IV for fluids and medicines.
Because of these factors, a D&C does not meet the criteria for major surgery.
