韓醫學(한의학) 外科(외과) 用語(용어) 馬刀(마도)의 의미에 관한 小考(소고)

Objectives : We can discover ‘Madohyeobyeong(馬刀挾영)’ and ‘Madohyeobyeong(馬刀挾영)’ in LingShu(靈樞). But the meaning of them are not clear. Especially mean of ‘Mado(馬刀)’ is thoroughly confused. Someone had regarded ‘Mado’ as a neck region of human body, someone had regarded ‘Mado’ as a lump of neck region, the others had regarded that mean of ‘Mado’ is ‘longish’. So we would like to find out clear mean of ‘Maso’. Methods : We have found out examples of ‘Mado’ from ancient books and recent research. We have used books in the field of acupuncture, moxibustion and surgery(YangYiDaQuan(瘍醫大 全), WaiKeDaCheng(外科大成), HuangDiNeiJingLingShu(黃帝內經靈樞), ZhenJiuDaQuan(鍼灸大全), ZhenJiuDaCheng(鍼灸大成), WaiKeLiLi(外科理例), ZhenJiuWenDui(鍼灸問對), WaiKeQuanShengJi (外科 全生集), etc.). Results & Conclusions : Generally part of speech of ‘Mado’ is adjective. So ‘Mado’ plays the role of modifying shape of lump and abscess. In some cases, ‘Mado’ had used as abbreviation of longish shaped skin disease.
