General surgery is the medical specialty dedicated to diagnosis and treatment of diverse diseases, among which are diseases of the digestive system, endocrine disorders, breast diseases, anatomical defects of the abdominal wall such as hernias, and many other medical conditions requiring surgical intervention.
Other areas in the scope of General Surgery are oncological and metabolic disorders such as morbid obesity, as well as traumatic injuries. Modern General Surgery has developed minimally invasive surgical techniques that provide effective treatment involving less discomfort for the patients suffering from these pathologies. Examples of such techniques include laparoscopic surgery which, with recourse to small 5-millimetre incisions, allows for the treatment of the affected area with the help of video systems. This technique is greatly advantageous for patient recovery.
