Chirurgie is a branch of medicine that focuses on diagnosing and treating injuries, diseases, and deformities through surgical procedures. It involves various techniques, including cutting, suturing, and manipulating tissues to repair or remove affected areas. Surgeons, the medical professionals who perform these operations, often specialize in specific fields such as orthopedics, cardiac surgery, or neurosurgery. Surgical procedures can be performed in different settings, including hospitals and outpatient clinics. They may be classified as elective, meaning they are planned in advance, or emergency, which requires immediate attention. Advances in technology, such as minimally invasive techniques and robotic surgery, have improved patient outcomes and recovery times.
