[Preventive operations in plastic surgery].
Prophylactic surgery is an operation meant mainly to be preventive but may also be performed in combination with other operations. These procedures should prevent tissue damage or prevent spread and increase of this damage. Examples of such operations are procedures such as after radiotherapy, pressure sores and scar tissue.
