Lisangsokdanbang is the oldest known medical document in existence. It is, however lost-its original copy could not be traced. But the contents of Lisangsokdanbang quoted in Uibangyuchwi, a document published in Chosun in 1447. Thus this study aims to restore the contents of Lisangsokdanbang based on Uibangyuchwi and present the synthesis of facts on Lisangsokdanbang extracted from the reference books.
