A surgical operation table has a platform with a main section and an end extension section removably fitted adjacent an end of the main section. The extension section has a pair of support arms removably engageable in complementary sockets secured to the main section.

Means are provided for disengaging the locking plate from the arm when it is desired to remove the extension section from the main section.
