Acharya Sushruta’s contribution in the field of Surgery
Abstract
As a text-book, it is unrivalled in respect of composite teaching of the subject of surgery with reference to all allied branches of medical learning required by a surgeon. The Samhita is thus an encyclopedia of medical learning with special emphasis on Shalya and Shalakya. It still retains the land mark position in the field of surgical texts. The contributions of Sushruta are not only limited to surgical field but also extended up to the different branches of anatomy, embryology, gynecology, obstetrics, pediatrics, toxicology, medicine etc. In this article, an attempt has been made to highlight the salient features and basic surgical foundation principles he has laid upon, which serves as very basic rules even till today for any surgical procedure we take, for which, till date we consider Acharya Sushruta as Father of Surgery.
