Types of Surgeries Performed in General Surgery
Depending on the surgical approach and access to the affected area, general surgery procedures are classified as:
- Open abdominal surgeries – where the surgeon makes an incision to access the abdominal cavity
- Laparoscopic surgeries – performed through small incisions with the assistance of an endoscopic camera, making them minimally invasive and allowing for a faster recovery
General surgical procedures include:
- Ectomy (removal) – complete removal of a diseased organ or pathological formation (e.g., appendectomy, cholecystectomy, splenectomy)
- Resection – partial removal of an organ (e.g., gastric or liver resection)
- Surgical anastomosis – creating or restoring a connection between hollow organs (e.g., bypass gastroenterostomy)
- Reconstructive surgeries – including intestinal plastic surgery and hernia repair (alloplasty)
General Surgery: Service Prices
The cost of surgical procedures and interventions (such as punctures and drainage) depends on the type of surgery, the method used, the affected organs, and the complexity of the case. Additional charges may apply for consumables and anesthesia.
