Abstract

The Kloma which is one of the root of Udakavaha Srotas is additionally an indefinite organ. A difference of opinion is found in Ayurvedic content with respect to the Kloma. While studying description related Kloma particularly through Sushruta Sharira Sthana it was seen that till date there is no conclusive sentiment about Kloma. The Viddha Lakshana (traumatic effects) of the Udakavaha Srotas is Pipasa (thirst) and Marana (death). So, to explain the anatomical area of Kloma and specify Kloma with the body organ was the prime plan to start this article. By the help of the patho-physiology of pancreas we correlate the organ Kloma with pancreas.
