Abstract

A Urethral stricture is a narrowing caused by scarring of the lining of the urethra and the surrounding corpus spongiosum. Presenting symptoms of urethral strictures often include decreased urinary stream, incomplete emptying of bladder, dysuria, UTI, and/or a rising post void residual (PVR). Cystoscopy and urethroscopy should be performed in all patients in whom urethral stricture is suspected. Strictures can be treated with dilation or visual urethrotomy. Single-stage open surgical repair by anastomotic urethroplasty, buccal mucosa graft, or penile flap is desirable if the obstruction recurs. Uttar basti is one of the important panchakarma procedure for treatment of reproductive and urinary disorders. In male decoctions and oils are passed per urethra to bladder and per vagina to uterus or urinary bladder in female. Entire procedure should be performed in asceptic condition. A detailed history with proper indication and skills are required to do uttar basti. Therefore from this case study we can accomplish that uttar basti shows significant results in urethral stricture.
