Abstract:
"Specialisation was the natural development within the framework of general surgery that gradually took place during the late 1800s and the early 1900s. By the 1920s, this had resulted in three distinct surgical compartments in the pelvis - urological, gynaecological, and colorectal. Some of the boundaries between the traditional areas of specialisation became inappropriate for developing and integrating modern surgery; this is reflected in the evolution of several regional surgical specialities, such as Head and Neck Surgery and the combination of plastic and orthopaedic training to create Hand Surgery. In the pelvis, cross-boundary sub-specialisation has developed between urology and gynaecology. Occasionally, this is expanded into the horizontal speciality pelvic surgery relating to reconstruction or oncology"-- Provided by publisher.
