साधारण शल्यचिकित्सा
From Wikipedia
General surgery, despite its name, is a surgical specialty that focuses on surgical treatment of abdominal organs, e.g. intestines including esophagus, stomach, colon, liver, gallbladder and bile ducts, and often the thyroid gland (depending on the availability of head and neck surgery specialists) and hernias.
In Australia, Canada, the US and the UK, general surgeons are responsible for breast care, including the surgical treatment of breast cancer. In most other countries, breast care falls under Obstetrics and Gynecology and its sub-specialty of Mastology (or Senology).
In the last few years minimally invasive surgery has become more and more important. Considerable enthusiasm has built around robotic surgery (or, more accurately, robotic-assisted surgery), despite the scant data currently available failing to show real benefit.
[परिवर्तन्] Training Programs
There are a number of excellent surgery training programs available for medical students going into a categorical general surgery residency. Based on a combination of the US News and World Report rankings for the ten best hospitals in the United States, number of presentations at national conferences, and word-of-mouth rankings from professors at top academic universities around the world, the most prestigious surgery training programs include Harvard, Johns Hopkins, and Duke. The next ten, in no particular order, include the University of Michigan (Ann Arbor), Washington University at St. Louis, University of Washington, Yale, University of Pennsylvania, University of Virginia, Cornell, Baylor (Houston), University of California at Los Angeles, and the University of California at San Francisco.
In Australia, surgical training is the responsibility of the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons.
