Home›Surgical Procedure›General and Abdominal SurgeryGroupGeneral and Abdominal SurgeryBroad abdominal access procedures and operations that do not belong to one specific digestive, urologic or gynecologic organ system, together with common general surgery procedures such as hernia repair and breast surgery. This includes exploratory and diagnostic abdominal access such as exploratory laparotomy and laparoscopy, hernia repair of the abdominal wall and groin, breast procedures such as mastectomy and lumpectomy, spleen and lymph node procedures such as splenectomy and lymphadenectomy, and trauma and damage control procedures. A procedure specific to one digestive organ, such as gastrectomy or colectomy, is grouped instead under gastrointestinal surgery even though it is also performed through the abdomen.FactsBrowse BySourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonModality KindWell-attestedsurgical 1InvasivenessWell-attestedinvasive 1Browse ByAll General and Abdominal SurgeryGeneral and Abdominal Surgery27 entriesGeneral and Abdominal SurgeryFilter Results27 entriesHealing TraditionAllGeneral and Abdominal Surgery (11)Treatment CategoryAllGeneral and Abdominal Surgery (16)Profession/RoleAllGeneral and Abdominal Surgery (11)Type/ClassificationAllGeneral and Abdominal Surgery (16)Era (Origin Year)All1809 (1)1880 (1)1882 (1)1893 (1)1901 (2)1951 (1)1981 (1)1993 (1)1997 (1)Specialist InAllOncology (1)Surgery (11)NationalityAllAustria (2)England (1)Germany (1)Libya (1)Poland (1)Scotland (1)Turkey (1)United States (3)StatusAllStandard of Care (15)Era (Birth Year)All1802 (1)1861 (1)1864 (1)1865 (1)1868 (1)1877 (1)1887 (1)1942 (1)1962 (1)1964 (1)1967 (1)Treats (Condition)AllBreast Cancer (4)Ectopic Pregnancy (1)Endometriosis (1)Hiatal Hernia (1)Inguinal Hernia (2)Osteomyelitis (1)Ovarian Cyst (1)Sickle Cell Disease (1)Volvulus (1)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 27Alexander Miles (surgeon)Surgeons and Perioperative SpecialistsDamage Control SurgerySurgical Procedure1 linkEsam OmeishSurgeons and Perioperative SpecialistsEvan O'Neill KaneSurgeons and Perioperative SpecialistsExploratory LaparotomySurgical ProcedureExploratory SurgerySurgical ProcedureGeorg LotheissenSurgeons and Perioperative SpecialistsHans FinstererSurgeons and Perioperative SpecialistsHemicorporectomySurgical Procedure1 linkHernia Repair SurgerySurgical Procedure2 linksInguinal Hernia SurgerySurgical Procedure1 linkJan ZaorskiSurgeons and Perioperative SpecialistsKorhan TaviloğluSurgeons and Perioperative SpecialistsLaparoscopic SurgerySurgical Procedure1 linkLaparoscopySurgical Procedure2 linksLaparotomySurgical Procedure2 linksLudwig WullsteinSurgeons and Perioperative SpecialistsLumpectomySurgical Procedure1 linkLymphadenectomySurgical Procedure1 linkMastectomySurgical Procedure2 linksPreventive MastectomySurgical Procedure1 linkRobin C.
