Innovative technologies, techniques and medical advancements have significantly transformed surgical practice, improving patient outcomes, introducing new treatments, reducing complication rates and length of hospital stay. New surgical techniques provide less invasive treatment options, allowing patients to recover fast and return to their normal activities.
