Abstract

Avascular necrosis is the death of bone tissue due to a lack of blood supply. Also called osteonecrosis, it can lead to tiny breaks in the bone and cause the bone to collapse. A broken bone or dislocated joint can stop the blood flow to a section of bone. Avascular necrosis is also associated with long-term use of high-dose steroid medications and too much alcohol(1). Here we present the case of a 48 year old male who presented with Avascular necrosis of head of femur on either side (FICAT stage III on left side and stage II on right side). It can correlate with asthimajjagat vata. Ayurvedic managements include Shaman chikitsa and Shodhan chikitsa. This case highlights the challenges associated with Asthimajjagat vata (AVN) and emphasizes the importance of timely intervention and multidisciplinary care.

KEY WORDS:-  Avascular necrosis, Asthimajjagat vata, panchatikta ksheera basti, Jalaukavacharana.
