Abdominal surgery is a medical procedure that involves operations on organs located in the abdomen, such as the stomach, intestines, liver, and gallbladder. This type of surgery is often performed to treat conditions like appendicitis, hernia, or gallstones. Surgeons may use traditional open surgery or minimally invasive techniques, such as laparoscopy, which involves smaller incisions and quicker recovery times. Patients typically undergo abdominal surgery under general anesthesia, meaning they are asleep during the procedure. After surgery, they may need some time to recover in the hospital, followed by rest at home. Proper post-operative care is essential for healing and preventing complications.
