Spanish term or phrase: campo operatorio / campo quirúrgico

Hola una vez más,

The literal translation would be surgical or operating field but it sounds just a wee bit TOO literal to be true.

Is it given a more common name in the US medical environment?

Example:
La cirugía abdominal previa se consideró, inicialmente, como una contraindicación para el abordaje laparoscópico, como consecuencia de las dificultades que suponía en la exposición del ***campo operatorio***. El avance tecnológico y la experiencia adquirida con la técnica han hecho que en la mayoría de los grupos, hoy en día, no se considere un criterio de exclusión en la selección de los pacientes
