In 1860 he was appointed professor of infantile pathology and therapeutics at New York Medical College-the first pediatric medical position-and in 1865 became clinical professor of diseases of children at New York University Medical College, and in 1870 professor of clinical pediatrics at the College of Physicians and Surgeons (Columbia University). He established the Pediatric Section of the AMA in 1880 and the American Pediatric Society in 1888-the first independent medical specialty society in the U.S. He opened the first outpatient pediatric clinic in 1874 at the Jews Hospital (later Mount Sinai Hospital].

See GM-5 11 & 6485.93 (citing the 1909 Calcutta Sanskrit edition); Waller 9366. Translates into Latin the first two books of Susruta's Samhita (treatise). Little is known about Susruta, the greatest early Hindu surgeon, who lived around 600 BCE. He wrote his treatise on surgery in Sanskrit, with its 186 chapters divided into six Books The first Book is Sutra-Sthana, the first 27 chapters of which deal with the fundamental principles of general & plastic surgery, while chapters 28-46 deal with pharmaceutical treatments. The 16 chapters of the second Book, Nidana-Sthana, deal with diagnosis (pages 167 on). Chapter 16 of the Sutra-Sthana deals with the repair of torn earlobes and damaged noses-the earliest known description of plastic surgery-and includes the first recorded description of the pedicle flap method, subsequently named the "Indian" method. Susruta also described numerous surgical instruments and his operative techniques for abscesses, lithotomy, amputation, fractures, dislocations, hernias, etc. One of the earliest works on surgery, Susruta's treatise is, along with the Charaka Samhita, one of the two foundational works for Ayurvedic medicine.
Franz Hessler (1799-1890), the translator, was a Bavarian physician who was the first serious Western student of Hindu medicine, his 1830 medical thesis being on Indian medicine. He taught himself Sanskrit and between 1844 and 1850 translated all six books of Susruta's Samhita into Latin, with Books 3-5 appearing in 1847, and Book 6 in 1850. These were followed by two volumes of commentary in 1855. Though the first edition of an Ayurvedic text published in the West, Hessler's Latin translation of Susruta was preceded by an English translation by Sri Madhusudana Gupta that was published in two volumes in Calcutta in 1835-36.
