        abstract = {Background: Ayurveda recognizes that some diseases may not be explicitly named, yet can be managed using the principles of Nidana Panchaka. Such conditions are termed Anukta Vyadhi. Cholelithiasis, with an increasing prevalence of 5–6% in India, can be correlated with Pittashmari, as gallstone formation occurs in the Pittashaya (gallbladder). In modern medicine, cholecystectomy is the gold standard treatment but is associated with risks and long-term complications, including post-cholecystectomy syndrome in about 40% of patients. Hence, alternative non-surgical management is essential.
Methodology:
A single case of a 63-year-old male presenting with symptoms of cholelithiasis was studied. Diagnosis was confirmed by ultrasonography (USG) showing gallbladder calculi. Ayurvedic management was designed based on classical Ayurvedic references, contemporary literature, and previous research.
Results:
After three months of Ayurvedic treatment, repeat USG revealed no gallstones, and all symptoms resolved.
Conclusion:
Ayurvedic management of Pittashmari proved effective, offering a safe, affordable, and non-invasive treatment. Further clinical research is required to validate these findings.},
