Surgery

Classifying medical conditions is a tricky business. Almostadoctor existed for a long time without any 'Surgery' section, and instead, we tried to classify 'Surgery' articles within their relevant 'System'. For example, appendicitis, can be found in the Gastrointestinal Tract section.

You can still find these articles in their relevant system, but, by popular demand, and in an attempt to classify things more appropriately, we have now also pulled this list of surgical type articles together for you here.

Please note that this list is not exhaustive, and we may have missed off some relevant topics, that actually do exist elsewhere on almostadoctor, so if you can't find anything, try the search button too!

This section contains topics that might be considered 'General Surgery'. Specialist surgery, such as ENT, Ophthalmology, Orthopaedics and Urology all have their own sections, but, there will also be a good deal of overlap with here and those sections for the common presentations.
