While many know that modern medicine has a base in Ayurveda- an ancient system of medicine using herbs and variety of concoctions, few may know that an ancient Indian physician named Sushruta compiled a monumental work in surgery and its management and is the Father of world\u2019s modern surgery. \u2018Sushruta Samhita\u2019 a priceless compilation of detailed surgical and other intervention techniques in Sanskrit\u00a0 was compiled in 800 BC. \u00a0To mark the \u201cWorld Plastic surgery Day on July 15\u201dAmandeep Hospital today dedicated this day to the Great \u00a0Sushruta. In the presence of Dr Avtar Singh and Dr Amandeep Kaur directors of Amandeep Hospital , chief Plastic Surgeon of the hospital, Dr Ravi Mahajan stated that the first text in the study of Plastic Surgery worldover is on Sushruta Samhita which was also translated from Sanskrit into Arabic as Kitab-i- Susrud in the 8<sup>th<\/sup> century before many translations in other world languages thereafter.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00a0Amandeep hospital undertook free plastic surgeries of six patients from poor backgrounds who could ill afford surgery including one of Mangoo Rani wife of Rickshaw-puller whose nose got chopped in an accident six years back and couldn\u2019t afford surgery for nose reconstruction. Lakhwinder Kaur , a 39-year old female\u00a0 from Baba Bakala with diagnose of Post burn contraction of\u00a0 neck with Axilla ,besides\u00a0 Ajay from Pathankot,\u00a0 Bharat Bhushan,\u00a0 Navpreet and\u00a0\u00a0 Jeevan Singh for various corrective surgeries. Where misconceptions range about \u00a0plastic surgery \u00a0are many only this being only about \u00a0cosmetic surgery for beautification, the day was celebrated with live quiz on general knowledge about plastic surgery and general health consciousness with little prizes for best answers. Dr Ravi explained that plastic surgery was mainly about correction of body parts to make them functional, aesthetic and sometimes to improve postural defects. These deformities may be caused due to accidents including burns, attacks, natural disasters besides congenital (birth defect) and even post cancer when the cancerous region is amputated from the body, it needs reconstruction such as the jaw, denture etc. Besides this, the hospital distributed 500 vouchers at a popular mall of the city facilitating free consultations at the Amandeep Multi-specialty OPD clinic near Trillium Mall with validity for a month. Along with this Interestingly before being adopted by International body\u00a0 \u2018July 15\u2019 was announced as \u2018National Plastic Surgery Day\u2019 by Dr Raja Sabhapati president of Indian Association of Plastic Surgeons three years back wherein the national president had urged each surgeon to perform one free surgery dedicated to this day.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00a0Dr Ravi further informed that as \u00a0per historical recordthe\u00a0Sushruta Samhita, in its current form, contains 184 chapters and description of 1120 illnesses, 700 medicinal plants, 64 preparations from mineral sources and 57 preparations based on animal sources.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hospital conducts six free surgeries to mark the Day \u00a0Amritsar, July\u00a013 \u00a0(Punjab Post Bureu)- \u00a0Most people think that modern medicine and surgery are a gift to the world from western countries.
