Key Points

Ksharasutra therapy shows significant efficacy in managing bhagandara, leading to improved symptom relief and reduced recurrence rates.
Patients treated with ksharasutra exhibited a notable decrease in healing time compared to conventional surgical techniques.
The study demonstrates that ksharasutra, a minimally invasive procedure, may present a better alternative for chronic conditions like fistula in ano.
Minimally invasive management options like ksharasutra may enable better outcomes for patients suffering from chronic inflammatory conditions.

Abstract

Bhagandara (Fistula in Ano) is a chronic inflammatory condition characterized by the formation of a tract between the anal canal and perianal skin. It is correlated with anal fistula in modern medicine, which is known for its high recurrence rate despite surgical interventions. In Ayurveda, Ksharasutra therapy, a minimally invasive parasurgical procedure, has been extensively advocated for its effective management. Objective: To evaluate the clinical efficacy of Ksharasutra in the management of Bhagandara with respect to symptom relief, healing time, and recurrence rate
