Introduction Kidney stone disease is a crystallopathy and occurs when there are too many minerals in the urine and not enough liquid or hydration. This imbalance causes tiny pieces of crystal to aggregate and form hard masses or calculi in upper urinary tract Because renal calculi typically form in the kidney, if small enough, they are able to leave the urinary tract via urine stream. A small calculus may pass without causing symptoms However, if stone grows to more than 5 mm it can cause blockage of ureter resulting in excruciating intermittent pain that radiates from the flank to the groin or to the inner thigh. This is due to transfer of referred pain signals from lower thoracic splanchicn nerves to lumbar splanchic nerves as stone passes down from kidney or proximal ureter to distal ureter Between 1% and 15% of people globally are affected by renal calculi at some point in the liver. In 2015,22.1 million cases occurred resulting in about 16,100 deaths. They have become more common in western world since the 1970’s. Generally more men are affected than women The prevalence and incidence of the disease rises worldwide and continues to be challenging for patients, physicians and healthcare systems. Renal colic caused by kidney stones is commonly accompanied by urine urgency, restlessness, haematuria, sweating, nausea and vomiting It typically comes in waves lasting 20 to 60 min caused by peristaltic contraction of ureter as it attempts to expel stone. Risk factors include dehydration from low fluid intake, warm climate, obesity, immobility, sedentary lifestyle, high dietary intake of animal protein, sodium, sugar including honey, refined sugar, high fructose, corn syrup, excessive consumption of fruit juices etc According to Ayurveda Mutrashmari is तुल्यताश्मणा यांती त ात्ताश्म र िवदु : I In Ayurveda there are 4 types of Mutrashmari explained i.e., Vataj, Pittaj, Kaphaj & Shukraj. According to Sushruta Hetus of Mutrashmari include Divaswaap, Samashan, Adhyashan, Shita, Snigdha, Guru, Madhur Aahaar Sevan According to Madhav Nidan Lakshana includes Mutrakruchrataa, Jwar, Aruchi, Ashmatulya Vedana, Mutra Rujaa, Basti Shool, Vishirnadhaaryukta Mutra, Medhra Pradeshi Vedana, Mutra Margaavarodh, Sarakta Mutrapravrutti, Bastidaha, Bastitod Shaitya and Gurutva, Vrushan Shotha According to Charak Samprapti of Mutrashmari is described as: िवशोषयदबा ीगतं सशुक्रम् मूत्रम् स िपत्तम् पवन : कफम् वा I यदा तदाष्मऱ्यूपजायते तु क्रमेण िपत्तेषिवव रोचना गो : II ( च िच २६ / ३६ ) Material and Methods Initial assessment & Enrollment with written consent ↓ Microscopic observational changes to correlate Urinary Calculi with Mutrashmari ↓ Assessment criteria along with Crystal Morphology ↓ Observation, Interpretation & Statical Analysis Total 5 number of patients are enrolled in this study and correlated with Urinary Calculi i.e., Mutrashmari along with Crystal Morphology Microscopic observational changes to correlate Urinary Calculi with Mutrashmari along with Crystal Morphology as follows :- Calcium Oxalate Crystals Nivedita VS et al.
