Surgery is a discipline of medicine dealing with the manual and instrumental treatment of injuries, illnesses, and other ailments. Surgery is used to treat acute accidents and illnesses, as opposed to chronic, slow-progressing diseases, unless people with the latter type of sickness need to be operated on. Surgical treatment has been a vital part of global health care for over a century. The burden of surgical intervention on public health systems will continue to expand as the incidences of traumatic accidents, malignancies, and cardiovascular disease continue to rise. Surgical intervention is frequently the sole way to alleviate impairments and lower the risk of mortality from common diseases. Surgical interventions account for an estimated 13% of the world's total disability-adjusted life years, with millions of people undergoing treatment each year.
