GENERAL SURGERY
What is General surgery ?
This is a surgical specialty that deals with the treatment of patients with disorders and injuries that require operative intervention. General surgery encompasses the diagnosis, treatment, and operative care for disorders of all parts of the body. Equipped to perform operations on a good number of areas of the body, general surgeons are trained in performing operations on the gastrointestinal tract, abdomen, breast, skin, soft tissues, and endocrine system.
What Does a General Surgeon Do?
Some surgeries require surgeons who specialize in certain things, like cardiac (heart) surgeons or neurosurgeons (brain surgeons), but not all. That’s why there are general surgeons.
A general surgeon has specialized knowledge of the entire surgical process, from the initial evaluation through preparation, procedure, and post-operative management. A general surgeon understands all nine basic areas of surgery, which are:
- The digestive tract
- The abdomen and its contents
- The skin and soft tissue, including the breasts
- The head and neck,
- The blood vessels and heart
- The endocrine system (hormones and glands)
- Surgical treatment of cancer
- Surgical management of traumatic injuries
- Care of critically ill patients with surgical needs
