General surgery is a technical discipline that includes the general principles of medicine (such as wound healing, metabolic and endocrine response to injury) and has influenced many branches of surgery and basic medicine in terms of the development and problems of the whole body system.
The word surgery derives from the Latin term 'chirurgiae' and means 'handwork'. Surgery, which is one of the oldest branches of medicine, is based on the surgical repair of diseases, injuries and structural defects in the body that cannot be cured by drugs or other treatment methods, or the diseased organ is cut out and converted to its natural and appropriate form.
