Emergency Surgery - Kyukyuugeka

...In the field of gastrointestinal surgery, it has become possible to operate not only on esophageal and pancreatic cancer, but also on liver cancer, which was previously thought to be inoperable. Today's remarkable developments in transportation and industry have brought about widespread burns and multiple trauma as secondary effects, which has led to the development and differentiation of emergency surgery, leading to the separation of plastic surgery, which deals with the formation of scars and the recovery of motor function.

From [Surgery]
