Finally, 50 articles related to the objective of the study were extracted and assessed.Findings: This study indicated that the use of HIJAMAT in Iran has an ancient history and almost all the famous Iranian doctors have used it. The records illustrated that the use of HIJAMAT was experienced in treating more than a dozen diseases. Nowadays, some doctors believe that HIJAMAT can be used as an effective method in the treatment of some diseases. A number of laboratory investigations have confirmed the therapeutic effects of HIJAMAT for treating some diseases. However, the medical community and Iranian people do not have enough information on HIJAMAT and some organizations and clinicians are concerned about the risks of HIJAMAT for transmission of some infectious diseases.Conclusion: The results showed that despite the approved benefits of HIJAMAT, there are some problems in its promotion and development in Iran, which should be considered by policy makers and implementers with an emphasis on broader monitoring.
