Abstract


A fistula is abnormal communication between two epithelial cells. Fistula in ano is abnormal communication between anal canal and perianal skin. It can be aquired due to trauma or congenital. Perianal abscess generally turns into fistula in ano. In ayurveda acharya sushruta had mentioned fistula in ano as bhagandar and explained various treatments for these. Probing and threading with ksharsutra application is very successful treatment in ayurveda which minimizes recurrence of disease with minimum scar. In our case, the patient had a perianal abscess with foreign bodywithin it as a result of trauma, which developed into fistula in ano.

Keywords – fistula in ano, bhagandar, ksharsutra application, probing and threading.
