Ysandhan Karma- A Conceptual Approach in Susruta Samhita and its Relation with Reconstructive Surgery

Abstract

Ayurveda is a vast arena of knowledge which stands as the truth until date. Susruta Samhita, the oldest documentation of surgery on human mentions innumerable concepts in management of surgical as well as medical diseases. The Sanskrit language has its own beauty to express multiple things by one word. So the terminologies in the texts should be read with respective consideration. Sandhan is a term which is found in various aspects in Susruta Samhita, which is often commonly thought as reconstructive surgery only. The article is a literary research on the concept of Sandhan here. The utility of the study is to review the literature on the term “Sandhan” and also to understand the keen concepts of Sandhan Karma with respect to reconstructive surgery. Modern reconstructive surgery has its basis in Susruta Samhita and this is owed by the surgeons today to the ancient Indian Sages.
