General reconstruction involves surgical procedures to restore form and function to areas of the body affected by trauma, disease, or congenital defects. This includes skin grafts, flap surgery, and tissue expansion to repair wounds, burns, or defects following tumor removal. The goal is to rebuild structures for both aesthetic and functional purposes, such as restoring mobility, protecting vital structures, or improving appearance. Surgeons must consider tissue viability, blood supply, and the impact on surrounding areas to achieve optimal outcomes. It often requires a multidisciplinary approach, involving various specialists for comprehensive care.
