Brief Summary
Modification(s)  

Standard Apamarga Ksharasutras were used for treatment of chronic fissure -in ano in both groups

Adjuvant Drugs like Sphatikadi yoga 20gm for sitz bath and Jatyadi tail 10ml per rectal instillition were used externally in both groups

Panchasakar churna 5g at night and Vatagajankush vati  250mg three times were given for internal use in both groups.

In group B (n=50) of kshara sutra suturing with Lords anal dilatation patients cured earlier as compared to patients of group A (n=50) with kshara sutra suturing without Lords anal dilatation. So study concluded that Lords anal dilation had definite role for relaxation of anal sphincters in Parikartika i e chronic fissure in ano

During treatment period of 4 weeks as well as follow up period of one month no adverse effect of any drugs  or untoward effects of Ksharasutra were noticed as well as reported by any patients.

Finallystudy  concluded that Ksharasutra Suturing is cost effective, ambulatory and successful treatment in the management of Parikartika i e chronic fissure in ano
