Surgery is a medical or dental speciality that involves the use of operative manual and instrumental procedures on a person to investigate or treat a pathological condition such as a disease or injury, as well as to help improve body function, appearance, or to repair undesirable ruptured regions. A surgical procedure, operation, or simply "surgery" is the term used to describe the process of doing surgery. The verb "operate" denotes "to do surgery" in this context. The adjective surgical denotes something that is related to surgery, such as surgical instruments or a surgical nurse. A person or an animal can be the person or subject on whom the surgery is conducted. A surgeon is someone who does surgery, while a surgeon's assistant is someone who assists with surgery. The surgeon, the surgeon's assistant, an anaesthetic, a circulating nurse, and a surgical technician make up a surgical team. Surgery lasts anywhere from a few minutes to many hours; however, it is rarely used on a regular basis. The term "surgery" can also refer to the location where surgery is conducted, or simply the office of a physician, dentist, or veterinary in British English. Urgency, type of surgery, body system involved, degree of invasiveness, and special instrumentation are all frequent categories for surgical procedures.
