Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Fibroidenomas of breast are benign tumours characterised by an admixture of stromal and epithelial tissue. Basing upon the sign and symptoms, Saumya Arbuda of Stana can be correlated with fibroadenoma of breast. Inconvenience for operative procedure, poor cardio-respiratory assessment, unfitness for surgery and anaesthesia both etc are the causes to select medical management for breast fibroidenoma. Classical Ayurvedic treatment is having potential role in the management of Saumya Arbuda of Stana. This case was studied to understand the role of Ayurvedic medications in the management of Saumya Arbuda of Stana i.e. Fibroidenoma. MATERIAL AND METHODS Known case of fibroadennoma was enrolled for the study from OPD, SRPT Department, PD Patel Ayurved Hospital, Nadiad, and was treated with Kanchnaar Guggulu, Varunadi Kwath and Dashanga Lepa. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Satisfactory results were noted by reduction of lump size in one breast and complete remission of fibroidenoma in another breast. It is mentioned in classics that, Kanchanara is having Gandamalahar property by its Prabhava. Thus it breaks glandular pathological growth. Also, Varuna is described as Ashmarihara property. Any formation of solid pathological structural growth demands presence of Kapha Dosha. Varuna and Kanchanar both are having Kaphahara property. Moreover, Dashanga lepa helps in reduction of inflammatory growth. CONCLUSION Positive and satisfactory results shows efficacy of applied Ayurvedic therapy in the management of fibroidenoma. Further clinical trial on large number of patients may help in generating scientific data for definitive outcome.
