A modular operating table comprises a support () and a base part () attached to the support (), the base part () providing a first region of a support surface for a patient's body during surgery, the base part () comprising side bars () extending parallel to a longitudinal axis of the support surface in lateral edge regions of the support surface. A seat element () is attached to the base part (), the seat element () providing a second region of the support surface, a width of the second region decreasing in a distal direction, symmetric to a central longitudinal axis of the support surface, the seat element () having at least two first connection elements for the distal attachment of functional components, the at least two first connection elements being arranged along main axes of the side bars. A first functional component () comprising a generally triangular plate () provides a third region of the support surface. The first functional component () is attachable to one of the at least two first connection elements of the seat element, the attachment of two of said first functional components () complementing a generally rectangular support area in a distal region of the seat element (). The first functional component () has a second connection element for the distal attachment of functional components, the second connection element being arranged along the main axis of the corresponding side bar when the first functional component () is attached to the seat element ().
