Operation Urgent

An urgent operation is an operation that must be performed within a short period of time from the onset of the disease (within a few days).

Urgent operations are usually required for acute conditions that threaten the patient's life, such as injuries, bleeding, heart attacks and others. Timely performance of such operations is critical to saving the life and health of the patient.

Urgent operations include:

  1. Emergency operations for injuries - laparotomy for penetrating abdominal wounds, craniotomy for traumatic brain injury.

  2. Stopping internal bleeding when blood vessels or organs rupture.

  3. Removal of intestinal infarction in acute intestinal obstruction.

  4. Amputation of limbs with extensive tissue damage and the development of gangrene.

  5. Cardiac surgery for ruptured aneurysm, cardiac tamponade.

  6. Emergency neurosurgical interventions for cerebral hemorrhages.
