The world’s burden of surgical diseases is large and increasing. Unfortunately,\5% of all surgical procedures are performed in countries ranked within the lowest onethird in terms of per-capita health expenditures [1]. The unmet need for surgical care results in unacceptable morbidity/mortality rates associated with a host of conditions (trauma, pregnancy-related complications, other emergencies). This is especially true for rural and marginalized populations in low-and middle-income countries (LMICs). Recognizing that variations in the spectrum of surgical diseases are observed among and within countries,‘‘essential’’surgery and anesthesia may be viewed as a core group of services that can be delivered within the context of universal access. These high-priority interventions are those for which:(1) there is a large public health burden;(2) the treatment is highly successful;(3) the treatment is cost-effective [2].To date, essential surgery and anesthesia have received minimal financial and political support as public health strategies because of the perception that the services are costly, are resource-intensive, require highly specialized training, and benefit only a fraction of the population relative to competing health interests. Evidence is amassing to refute these claims.
