Category | Reconstructive Surgery |
Reconstructive surgery fixes defects you were born with, defects caused by disease and defects caused by injury. You may need, for example, a breast reconstruction after a mastectomy, or hand surgery to fix congenital webbed fingers. Reconstructive surgery is different from cosmetic because it’s for medical reasons. Reconstructive urology is surgery to restore normal function by repairing, rerouting, or recreating areas of the upper and lower urinary tract and some reproductive organs.
