Eski Anadolu Türkçesi, Türk dili gramer çalışmalarında oldukça önemli bir yere sahiptir. Üzerinde en fazla çalışmanın yapıldığı bir dönemdir. Eski Anadolu Türkçesi dönemi içerisinde edebî eserlere göre üzerinde daha az çalışma yapılan tür tıp eserleridir. Tıp eserleri dahil bütün Eski Anadolu Türkçesi dönem eserleri üzerine yapılacak çalışmalar Türk dili gelişim tarihine önemli katkılar sağlayacaktır. XIII. yüzyılda ilk örneklerini tespit ettiğimiz Eski Anadolu Türkçesi dönemi XIV. yüzyılda yazı dili olarak kullanılmaya başlanmış birçok alanda Türkçe eserler yazılmıştır. Bu dönemde Anadolu’da yazılan edebî eserlerin yanında tarih, astronomi, tıp gibi eserler kaleme alınmıştır. Tıp metinleri dönemin diğer eserlerinin diline göre farklılık göstermektedir. Çünkü bu metinlerde edebî endişe yoktur. Sade, basit, açık, anlaşılır bir dil ile olanı olduğu gibi anlatma düşüncesi vardır. Dolayısıyla bu metinlerde dönemin söz varlığı ile alakalı özgün unsurlar tespit edilebilmektedir. Çalışmasını yaptığımız Cerrâh-nâme, Eski Anadolu Türkçesi dönem özelliklerini yansıtan ancak müellifini tespit edemediğimiz anonim bir metindir. Çalışmamızda Eski Anadolu Türkçesi dönemine ait Cerrah-name adlı eserde tespit ettiğimiz bazı tıp terimleri üzerinde durulacaktır. Bunların kullanımı, kullanım özellikleri ortaya konulmaya çalışılacaktır.

It is known that in Central Asia Turkish regions the illnesses were treated with different medicine combinations and separate tents marked with flag and spear were built to treat the ill people. Before the acceptance of Islam the Turks were interested in medicine. These data related with the period before the acceptance of Islam were gathered from Uyghur texts.
