Surgical installations refer to the process of implanting medical devices into a patient's body. IMPLANTS are typically used to replace or support a damaged or missing organ, tissue, or bone. They can also be used to provide additional support for a weakened area of the body, such as a joint or ligament. IMPLANTS are usually made from biocompatible materials, such as metal, plastic, or ceramic, and are designed to last for many years. The process of surgical installation requires careful planning and precision, as the implant must be placed in the correct location and secured properly.
