Abstract

Acharya Sushruthadefined Shalya Tantra as the science that deals with the removal of different kinds of Shalya (foreign body) and application of Yantra, Sastra, Kshara, Agniand Vrana Nidana.In that for Pranashta Shalya (foreign body) Diagnosis and its removal, Acharya had given separate chapters. During the times when there were no radiological investigatory techniques, AcharyaSushrutha, the surgeon of ancient India had wonderfully traced out those foreign bodies lost in the body with the simple Lakshana’s. Acharya had also mentioned the methods of removal of Shalya with the instruments available on those days. Some of the methods used to diagnose and treatment are adopted in practice now-a-days also.
