General surgery deals with the treatment of diseases of the skin, breast, soft tissues, as well as the digestive organs: esophagus, stomach, liver, gallbladder, pancreas, small and large intestines.
What is treated in the General Surgery Department
People come here with the following diseases that require extensive surgical interventions:
- trauma, contusion of the abdominal organs;
- gallstones or kidney stones;
- acute appendicitis;
- pancreatic necrosis;
- abscess, phlegmon;
- erysipelas;
- fistula;
- intestinal obstruction;
- peritonitis;
- 3rd and 4th degree skin burns;
- stomach ulcer, duodenal ulcer;
- cuts, ruptures of the skin, tendons;
- hernia of the abdominal, groin area.
General surgeons are also referred to for dressing, tissue dissection, treatment of 1st and 2nd degree burns, and amputations.
Many manipulations are carried out on an outpatient basis - without hospitalization in a hospital. Minimally invasive interventions are possible with:
- opening a carbuncle, boil, panaritium;
- removal of a splinter, ingrown nail, lipoma, fibroma and other benign formations;
- treatment of wounds, both clean and complicated by the inflammatory process;
- as well as during biopsy, puncture.
Recovery will be required after the operation. Depending on the complexity of the manipulation, this period can be from a day to several weeks. We do not limit the length of stay in the hospital to a predetermined number of days - the patient is in the ward for as long as needed. You can undergo a rehabilitation course in comfortable conditions, under round-the-clock supervision, in the K+31 clinic.
