Abstract

The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) is at the forefront in the provision of surgical care to the victims of war. In 1990 twenty-two surgical teams were deployed in 14 hospitals in eight countries and 18,450 patients were treated. This article reviews the contribution made by ICRC, and the experience that can be gained by New Zealand and Australian surgeons and anaesthetists.
