Abstract

The optimal care for patients suffering from terminal and end-stage disease due to malignancies or other conditions has gained significantly more attention by health-care professionals across all specialties. This is an important area for general surgeons – we always have performed procedures on terminally ill patients but rarely described it as “Palliative Surgery”.
