An operation is a medical procedure in which doctors, usually surgeons, perform manual or instrumental actions on a patient’s body to diagnose, treat, or cure a condition. It often involves making incisions, removing or repairing tissue, or implanting medical devices under sterile conditions. Operations can be planned (elective) or required urgently (emergency) and may be done under local, regional, or general anesthesia. They take place in an operating room and require a trained medical team, including surgeons, anesthesiologists, and nurses. The goal of an operation is to improve health, relieve symptoms, restore function, or save a patient’s life.
