The prevalence rate is difficult to work out because calculous disease is often asymptomatic. Cholelithiasis has become one among the foremost common diseases of the biliary tract. approximately 80 percent of gallstones contain cholesterol and therefore the remaining 20 percent are pigment stones, which consist mainly of calcium bilirubinate. Case Report: A 35-year male patient approached complaints of heaviness of abdomen, mild intermittent abdomen pain, nausea and with ultrasonography report which was suggestive of cholelithiasis of 4.7mm.

A recent report on status of infertility states that, 50% is related to reproductive anomalies or disorders in the male, in which 90% of male infertility problems are related to Oligospermia and other abnormalities in semen analysis. As per Ayurveda, Oligospermia can be considered as Ksheena Shukra. Surgery, Hormone treatments, Medications and Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) are the main line of treatment in Conventional medicine, but these are associated with many unwanted and serious adverse effects. The present case discussion is about the effective management of a case diagnosed as Ksheena Shukra (Oligospermia) with Ayurvedic intervention, which was posted for ART and Hormone therapy.

Introduction: Charcot’s triad was traditionally used to diagnose ascending cholangitis. However it is already proven that only minority of patients with ascending cholangitis who fulfill the triad of fever, jaundice and right hypochondriac pain. Aim: We would like to highlight the rarity of severe hyperbilirubinaemia secondary to benign cause as most of the incidence raised more suspicion for primary liver disease or malignancy. Case study: We presented a case report of a 58-year-old male patient with no comorbid who presented to us with right hypochondriac pain and obstructive jaundice with severe hyperbilirubinaemia (total bilirubin 1025 µmol/L), without fever or leukocytosis. Results and discussion: We presented a case report of a 58-year-old male patient with no comorbid who presented to us with right hypochondriac pain and obstructive jaundice with severe hyperbilirubinaemia (total bilirubin 1025 µmol/L), without fever or leukocytosis. Conclusions: Benign conditions such as common bile duct stones still can lead to severe hyperbilirubinaemia even though it is very rare. The usage of appropriate imaging is needed to exclude malignant causes.

Good skin is an integral part of health. In the present era, skin diseases are becoming a major hazard for mental health more than physical harm as it attributes the cosmetic harmony. Skin diseases are the outcome of improper food habits and lifestyles. Ayurveda has described all the skin diseases under the heading of Kushta. It is further divided into Maha Kushta and Kshudra Kushta. Vipadika is a common disorder of skin mentioned under Kshudraroga characterized by fissures and cracks in the hand and feet with severe pain.1Vata Kapha Dosha is involved in this disease. The main features are Panipada Sputana along with Kandu, Thivravedana and Raga.2 It can be compared with palmoplantar psoriasis in modern science. It is an auto-immune condition, characterized by red scaly patches on palm and soles often with fissures and bleeding. Ayurvedic treatment is very effective in these conditions. A 49-year-old male patient came to KVG Ayurveda Medical College, KC, OPD with complaints of itching, scaly lesion and pain in palms and soles, for 4 months. According to Lakshanas, it is diagnosed as Vipadika and treated with Shodhana, Shamana and Rasayana Oushadis and the patient got good relief. Ayurvedic treatment is very effective in the management of skin diseases because Ayurveda removes Doshas from its root. The present case study proves the Ayurvedic management of Vipadika Kushta is very effective with promising results. Keywords: Vipadika Kushta, palmo plantar psoriasis, Shodana, Shamana, Rasayana.

Adenomatoid tumor is an uncommon benign mesothelial neoplasm, usually localized in the epididymis. It is the most common paratesticular tumor of middle-aged patients (average age of clinical presentation: 36 years). However, these tumors in pediatric and pubertal patients are extremely rare. Due to their rarity, we present a case of adenomatoid tumor of the tail of the epididymis in a 16-year-old patient. After systematic research of the current literature, we did not find another case report of epididymal adenomatoid tumor in a male patient aged 16 years old or less. This notice and our concern, as well, about the patient’s surveillance protocol during the postoperative period were the motive for this case study.
