I had a brain surgery (craniectomy to remove a colloid cyst in the interventricular foramen of Monro) at 22, and while I was home from the hospital after 2 days it took over a month to get back to normal. It'd surely be hellish after retirement age. Anything with general anesthesia is high-risk, no matter how minor the rest of the procedure.
