Sushruta
Ancient Indian physician and surgeon
Sushruta (Sanskrit: सुश्रुत, lit. 'well heard', IAST: Suśruta[3]) is the listed author of the Sushruta Samhita (Sushruta's Compendium), considered to be one of the most important surviving ancient treatises on medicine.[nb 1] It is also considered a foundational text of Ayurveda.[5] The treatise addresses all aspects of general medicine, while the inclusion of impressive chapters on surgery showcases its importance, it may lead some to believe that it is the primary focus.
The translator G. D. Singhal called Suśruta "the father of plastic surgery" on account of these detailed accounts of surgery.[6][7][8][9]
It is generally accepted by scholars that there were several ancient authors collectively called "Suśruta" who contributed to this text.[10]
The Compendium of Suśruta locates its author in Varanasi, India.[11]
