Acharya Sushrut is revered by every surgeon, both Ayurvedic as well Allopathic, as the FATHER OF SURGERY. Modern day surgical practices have their roots from the surgical practices described in the ancient classical texts of Ayurveda. Out of the Bruhatrayee, Sushrut Samhita propounded by Acharya Sushrut is a samhita focusing on mainly surgical and para-surgical line of treatment of various diseases. The concept of 8 types of surgical practices was laid down by Acharya Sushrutaas AshtavidhaShastrakarma. These have proven to be the very strong and unshakable foundation on which modern day surgery is standing tall in its ever increasing glory. Chedan, Bhedan, Lekhan, Vyadhan, Eshan, Aharan, Vistravanand Seevan together make up the AshtavidhaShastrakarma[1]. Every surgical procedure being practiced and being researched about today can be traced back and categorized into these AshtavidhaShastrakarma. This conceptual study is being carried out to study and analyze the AshtavidhaShastrakarma for better comprehension and practice of modern Shalyatantra.
