Ca.Ci.12.81; Su.Ni.11.3. 798 The Suśrutasaṃhitā distinguishes five types. See on granthi: P. Tivārī (1990): 367–384. K.R. Srikantha Murthy interprets granthi as a benign tumour. 799 Cf. Su.Ni.11.4. 800 Cf. Su.Ni.11.5. 801 Cf. Su.Ni.11.6. 802 Not described in the Suśrutasaṃhitā. See P. Tivārī (1990): 380–381, 382; interpreted as a haemangioma or angioma (430–432). K.R. Srikantha Murthy regards it as a haematoma. 803 Cf. Ca.Ci.12.81. Absent from the Suśrutasaṃhitā. Interpreted as a myoma by K.R. Srikantha Murthy. 804 Cf. Ca.Ci.12.81; Su.Ni.11.7. Interpreted as a lipoma by K.R. Srikantha Murthy. 805 Not described in the Suśrutasaṃhitā. See P. Tivārī (1990): 381–382. Interpreted as a fibroma by K.R. Srikantha Murthy. 806 Cf. Su.Ni.11.8–9.

Srikantha Murthy regards an arbuda as a malignant tumour; his identification of an arbuda arising from fatty tissue as a lipoma is therefore not consistent. Cf. Ca.Ci.12.87; Su.Ni.11.15ab. See on arbuda: P. Tivārī (1990): 397–416. 810 K.R. Srikantha Murthy regards a māṃsārbuda as a sarcoma. 811 Cf. Su.Ni.11.13–15ab. Compare Ca.Sū.28.14–15a. 812 Cf. Su.Ni.11.13cd and 21. 813 Cf. Su.Ni.11.15cd–17ab. K.R. Srikantha Murthy identifies an arbuda by blood as a haematoma, which is unjustified (see U.29.18ab on the serious character of this type). Multiple arbudas (see Su.Ni.11.20) are absent from the Hṛdaya. 814 Cf. Su.Ni.11.15cd–17ab, 17cd–19, 20. 815 K.R. Srikantha Murthy: filariasis. Cf. Ca.Ci.12.98; Su.Ni.12.10 and 13. 816 Cf.

Suśruta does not describe gaṇḍamālā as a distinct entity; the disorder is mentioned at Su.Sū.24.9. 821 K.R. Srikantha Murthy: scrofula, cervical lymphadenitis. Cf. Su.Ni.11.10–12 (see also Su.Śā.4.4). The Hṛdaya regards gaṇḍamālā and apacī as synonyms. See the Madhukośa ad Mādhavanidāna 38.9cd–10. 822 Cf. Ca.Ci.12.79. 823 Cf. Su.Ni.10.9–10ab. 824 Cf.
