手术 (shǒu shù): surgery; to operate

Grandma's heart disease is serious; the doctor recommended surgery as soon as possible, and the whole family was very worried.

After a five-hour operation, the doctors finally succeeded in removing the tumor from the patient's body.

He had leg surgery last month; he is still recovering slowly in the hospital and is expected to be discharged next month.

Before the operation, the nurse told the patient not to eat anything and took his temperature and blood pressure.

This minimally invasive surgery has a small incision and a quick recovery, so many patients are willing to choose it.
