Recurrent Nature

Blepharitis is one of the inflammatory conditions of eyelid caused due to bacterial infection or colonization of the eyelid. It is notorious in nature and also very common, but very annoying to the patients and ophthalmologists too, because of its recurrent nature and lifelong treatment. So it is necessary to find an effective treatment modality. The symptoms of Blepharitis closely resembles to Krimigranthi described in Ayurveda, hence its treatment can be adopted. Girikarnyadi Gutika a Herbo-mineral formulation mentioned in Netra Prakashika consists of Shweta Girikarnika, Shodita Shweta Gunja, Shweta Punarnava, Haridra, Daruharidra, Shodita Tuttha and Gandhaka used as Anjana (application of medicated collyrium to the eye). These drugs are having the properties such as Krimighna (Antihelmintic), Vranaropana (Wound healing), Twakrogahara (cures diseases of skin) and Chakshushya (ocular protective) may be helpful in the management of Blepharitis.

Intracranial Lesions

Background: Radiation Therapy (RT) is an established treatment option for benign intracranial lesions. The aim of this study is to display an update on the role of RT concerning the most frequent benign brain lesions and tumors. Methods: Published articles about RT and meningiomas, Vestibular Schwannomas (VSs), Pituitary Adenomas (PAs), Arteriovenous Malformations (AVMs) and craniopharyngiomas were reviewed and extracted data were used. Results: In meningiomas RT is applied as an adjuvant therapy, in case of patientrefusing surgery or in unresectable tumors. The available techniques are External Beam RT (EBRT) and stereotactic ones such as Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS), Fractionated Stereotactic RT (FSRT), Intensity Modulated RT (IMRT) and proton-beam therapy. The same indications are considered in PAs, in which SRS and FSRT achieve excellent tumor control rate (92-100%), acceptable hormone remission rates (>50%) and decreased Adverse Radiation Effects (AREs). Upon tumor growth or neurological deterioration, RT emerges as alone or adjuvant treatment against VSs, with SRS, FSRT, EBRT or protonbeam therapy presenting excellent tumor control growth (>90%), facial nerve (84-100%), trigeminal nerve (74-99%) and hearing (>50%) preservation. SRS poses an effective treatment modality of certain AVMs, demonstrating a 3-year obliteration rate of 80%. Lastly, a combination of microsurgery and RT presents equal local control and 5-year survival rate (>90%) but improved toxicity profile compared to total resection in case of craniopharyngiomas. Conclusion: RT comprises an effective treatment modality of benign brain and intracranial lesions. By minimizing its AREs with optimal use, RT projects as a potent tool against such diseases.
