Please I have a question. Do you know if they use the tracheal intubation method or is just regular anesthesia without intubation. Thanks for your help.

I was intubated for my surgery. My surgeon only does it that way due to such a high % of his patients have sleep apnea which can restrict the airway. They did it after I was asleep and it came out before I woke up so if they hadn't told me they were doing it I would've never known. Hope this helps

To put me to sleep they put a mask on over my mouth and nose, then after I was completely out they inserted a tube down my throat. I could hardly talk after waking up because my throat was so dry.

Thanks guys. Helps a lot

I believe anytime they do laparoscopic surgery they intubate

Yes you are correct. A patient undergoing a laparoscopic procedure would always be intubated.
