4 Major ‘Types of Pathologic Process Requiring
Surgical Intervention (PET)
Obstruction ~ impaitment to the Mlow of vital Muids
(blood urine,[Link])
Perforation — rupture of an ofan.
Erosion ~ wearing off ofa surtace or membrane.
“Tumors — abnormal new growths.
Classification of Surgical Pravedure
According to PURPOSE:
® Diagnostic ~ to establish the presence of a disease
condition. (e.g biopsy )
© Exploratory = to determine the extent of discase
condition ( e,¢ Ex-Lap )
+ Curative — to treat the disease condition,
* Ablative — removal of an organ
* Constructive — repair of congenitally
defective organ.
+ Reconstructive— repair of damage organ
© Palliative ~to relieve distressing sign and symptoms,
not necessarily to cure the disease.
