If it wasn't for Ichigo and his friends(which includes two humans and a Quincy) the SS would have been killed off ages ago. He's indebted to not just ichigo here. The only reasons why he didn't have Orihime heal him is he's stubborn and thought his loss of arm was a badge of honor. Quite ridiculous but also shows how weak he became since the first arc where he was willing to kill both his favorite students for destroying the Sokyoku which is a heinous crime punishable by death; as Yamma stated.

That instance is both relevant and backing up my point as it shows his personality being different and supports Juha's Comments on how he became weak. If he had both his arms he could have stood a better chance. He could have likely still died but this is clearly kubo intentions so he appeared weak and easily killed for a "OMG not the HEAD CAPTAIN" Shock for the final arc. It's a good idea for writing but logically it's just dumb, why weaken yourself when you can be healed. :P Yeah, that was pretty silly, i still can't believe Yamamoto didn't want to be healed, having the other arm wouldn't change so much the fight, but anyway having two arms it's more useful than having one (obvious point). I actually think Yamamoto's death was very well written and Yhwach's dialogue during that sceNE was spot on, I also like the twist where it turns out that he was fighting a Tien rip-off.
