SURGERY - RECONSTRUCTIVE |
|
Reconstructive surgery is in its broadest sense the use of surgery to reconstruct damaged or malformed tissues or organs.
Although plastic surgery is involved in some aspects of reconstructive surgery there are other branches of surgery whose main aim is reconstruction of a more normal part of the body. This contrasts with the main alternative type of surgery in which something is removed - for example an inflammed appendix.
