It is well documented by historians and scientific scholars that the Sushruta Samhita was translated into Arabic and subsequently influenced European medicine.Here are the established historical facts confirmed by academics:Arabic Translation: During the 8th century Abbasid Caliphate in Baghdad, Caliph Al-Mansur commissioned the translation of the Sushruta Samhita and other Sanskrit medical texts into Arabic. These translations were widely known in the Islamic world as Kitab Shah Shun al-Hindi or Kitab-i-Susrud.Transmission to Europe: Arab scholars incorporated and expanded on this surgical knowledge, which eventually reached Europe by the end of the medieval period and during the Renaissance.Rhinoplasty and Surgery: The "Indian method" of rhinoplasty (rebuilding a nose using a skin flap from the forehead)—a technique pioneered by Sushruta—was famously observed by British surgeons in India in the late 18th century and subsequently adopted into modern European plastic surgery.
