General surgery is as old as medicine itself. Specialists can perform surgery on all parts of the body.
General surgery specific to abdominal organs covers esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, pancreas, gallbladder, bile ducts, skin, hernia, and more.
Since general surgeons in many centers around the globe provide the first services to patients in life-threatening emergencies, they have a wide range of activities and capabilities and can perform emergency surgeries in other fields when necessary, such as orthopedic, gynecological, and urological surgeries.
Operating rooms are a hospital’s beating heart, and infection control is a basic criterion in the design of operating rooms. They should be designed to prevent the spread of infection into the surgical area and other hospital units.
