AI overview

Surgery is a medical specialty in which doctors use hands-on techniques and instruments to diagnose or treat physical injuries, diseases, and other health conditions, as well as to change how the body functions or looks. It matters because it enables physicians to address problems that cannot be solved through medication alone, such as removing tumors, repairing trauma, or reconstructing damaged body parts.

Se denomina cirugía (del griego χείρ, jeir, "mano", y ἔργον, érgon, "trabajo", de donde χειρουργεία, jeirourguéia, "trabajo manual") a la práctica que implica la manipulación mecánica de las estructuras anatómicas con un fin médico, bien sea diagnóstico, terapéutico o pronóstico. De acuerdo con la Organización Mundial de la Salud (2012), una es todo procedimiento realizado en el quirófano, que comporte la incisión, la manipulación o la sutura de un tejido, y que generalmente requiere anestesia regional, o anestesia general, o anestesia raquídea, o sedación profunda, para así controlar el dolor.
