ABSTRACT

Mutrashmari (urolithiasis), a pathological condition of the urinary system where aggregation of urinary crystalloids takes place anywhere in the urinary tract, i.e., from the kidney to urinary bladder showing male preponderance (male:female = 2:1) and now becoming medico-surgical as well as economical challenge for all health-care systems. Ashmari comes under Mutravaha srotovikara and Ashtamahagada as described in Sushruta Samhita. In Sushruta Samhita it is explained that the formation of Mutrashmari is due to drying up of Kapha because of the action of Vata and Pitta. Mutravega avarodha or Vegadharana is another cause attributed to the formation of Ashmari. The incidence of Renal Calculi is 1-3% in adult population. In general population the incidence is increasing due to metabolic derangement. Most common type of renal stones is Oxalate stone, which accounts for 70% of all Renal stones. Sarangadhara mention Gokshuradi Guggulu are useful to treat Ashmari. In Bhaisajya Ratnawali mention Chandraprabha Vati are useful to treat four types of Ashmari.In X-ray about 90 %of Renal Calculi are radio-opaque.
