Defective basti putaka are eight in number and each of them affects the proper appliance in the procedure. When basti was used in olden times, a basti devoid of veins was selected from a dead animal (natural death/healthy and butchered) and it was processed prior by soaking in kashāya, (decoctions) gently rubbed and dried (दृढस्तनुर्नष्टसिरो विगन्धः कषायरक्तः सुमृदुः सुशुद्धः).5

Defective ''basti putaka'' are eight in number and each of them affects the proper appliance in the procedure. When ''basti'' was used in olden times, a ''basti'' devoid of veins was selected from a dead animal (natural death/healthy and butchered) and it was processed prior by soaking in ''kashaya'', (decoctions) gently rubbed and dried (दृढस्तनुर्नष्टसिरो विगन्धः कषायरक्तः सुमृदुः सुशुद्धः).5
Cakrapäni has commented upon the terms viṣama, sthūla, jālika, vātala, snigdha and klinna among defective basti. He has also elaborated on visratva, daurgrāhya, cyuti and adhāryatva. As discussed earlier, practicality and feasibility issues and stringent laws in procuring animal parts have led to the replacement of basti (putaka) with plastic bags.

Suśruta has limited the number to five viz. prāstīrna [prāstIrNa; प्रास्तीर्ण (extended/flat/having network of veins)], bahala [bahala; बहल (thick/bushy/dense)], durbaddha [durbaddha; दुर्बद्ध (badly fastened)], sacchidra [sacchidra; सछिद्र (along with holes)] and alpa [alpa; अल्प (tiny)] 6. Prāstīrna causes leakage of medication and alpa in less effective due to less amount of medication getting administered7.
