Abstract
Ayurveda is an oldest system of Indian medicine. In ayurvedic classics sharirsthan has given vast description about internal and external body features, out of these samhitas sushruta sharirsthana has great anatomical importance hence it is said that ’Sharire sushruta shrestha’. Twacha is dominent Dnyanendriya which occupies all other Indriyas and whole body. Twak sharir has its great importance regarding various vyadhies and their etiopathogenesis, hence studying the anatomy of Twak sharir and its applied aspect is important. Twak layers has described by our acharyas. Each layer has importance for specific vyadhi. Sushrutacharya has described seven layers, which is more accurate description compare to other Aacharya. Dr. Bhaskar Govind Ghanekar has compared these layers with modern science. Pemphigus vulgaris is most frequently diagnosed form of pemphigus, in which vesico-bullous lesions over oral cavity, chin, chest, front, back and genitals of body present along with fever, burning sensation and excruciating pain. Here in this article we have described a case study of Pemphigus vulgaris, in which Punch biopsy was performed. During the study it was found that the clinical features of Pemphigus vulgaris were mostly identical with one of the Kshudraroga known as ‘Visphotaka’ described by our ancient acharya in ayurvedic classics.
