v3.c42.s26.46

Although Vṛnda adopted Mādhava's scheme, the arrangement of the chapters of the *Siddhayoga* differs slightly from that of the *Rogavinīścaya* in having a separate chapter on jvarātīsāra (2), separate chapters on śūla (26) and pariṇāmaśūla (27), udāvarta (28) and ānāha (29), udara (37) and śothodara (38),⁷ bālaroga (66) and bālagraha (67). On the other hand, there are only two chapters on vraṇa, namely vraṇasotha (44) and āgantuvraṇa (45),⁸ and three on women's diseases, namely pradara (63), yoniroga (64),⁹ and strīroga (65).¹⁰ The disease called yonikanda, introduced by Mādhava in a separate short chapter, is mentioned once under the name of bhagaphala.¹¹ ¹² Vṛnda failed to deal with the treatment of a number of kṣudrarogas, namely yavaprakhyā, kakṣā, niruddhaprakaśa, agnirohiṇī, and saṃniruddhaguda.¹³
