What is a "microsurgery"?

A microsurgery is a type of surgery where specialized equipment and a microscope are used to perform detailed procedures on very small structures, such as blood vessels, nerves, or other delicate tissues. This technique allows surgeons to make precise repairs or reconstructions that are not possible without a microscope or with standard surgical tools. Microsurgery is commonly used in various fields of medicine, including plastic surgery, neurosurgery, ophthalmology, and reconstructive surgery. It helps in achieving better outcomes with minimal damage to surrounding tissues and faster recovery for patients.
