I think the idea is that it's supposed to be beneficial to the surgery itself, causes blood vessels to contract naturally and so forth.

But I'm pretty sure it just makes you much much more likely to die considering a lot of modern surgery actually has to go out of its way to raise body temps. I guess the other implication is they don't actually care about that.
