Title of the Article Surgery, Law, Methods and Surgical Skills: An Integrated Four-Pillar Framework for Contemporary Surgical Practice Authors and Affiliations Dr. Priyanka Sambhaji JadhavarAssistant Professor,Department of Law,Shivaji University, Kolhapur, Maharashtra, India Ganesh Shrirang NaleDepartment of Sociology,Central University of Haryana,Mahendragarh, Haryana, India Description (Title, Authors, Affiliations with Abstract Overview) Surgery, Law, Methods and Surgical Skills: An Integrated Four-Pillar Framework for Contemporary Surgical Practice, authored by Dr. Priyanka Sambhaji Jadhavar (Department of Law, Shivaji University, Kolhapur) and Ganesh Shrirang Nale (Department of Sociology, Central University of Haryana), presents a comprehensive interdisciplinary model for understanding modern surgical practice. The article conceptualizes surgery as a multidimensional profession that extends beyond operative expertise to include ethical responsibility, legal accountability, scientific reasoning, research methodology, and healthcare system management. Using a narrative review approach, the authors develop an integrated four-pillar framework comprising: Surgery and Surgical Skills, Law and Ethics, Scientific and Research Methods, and Management and Systems of Care. The study critically examines pre-operative management, operative principles, wound healing, shock, surgical infections, medico-legal duties, informed consent, negligence, clinical audit, outcome evaluation, research methodology, palliative care, rehabilitation, psychological aspects of surgery, and health economics. The framework emphasizes patient-centered care, evidence-based practice, ethical–legal compliance, and systemic accountability, making it particularly relevant for postgraduate surgical education, medico-legal scholarship, and interdisciplinary academic discourse.
