Securinega leucopyrus (Willd.) Muell. is known as Humari in India, Katupila in Sri Lanka and Spinous fluggea in English. It is a desert climatic plant used topically in paste form for healing of chronic and non-healing wounds. Application of Katupila Kalka (paste) is used commonly in the management of acute as well as chronic wounds in Sri Lanka as a folklore medicine. The aim of this study is to evaluate the role of herbal paste of Katupila in the treatment of Dushta Vrana (chronic wound). It is a single observational innovative case study. A female aged 40 years presented with a non-healing infected wound on her right buttock with a history of 2 months. On examination, there was a rounded wound having black color necrosed tissue and slough with foul smelling, measuring about 3 inch × 3 inch × 1 inch in diameter caused by pyogenic local infection. The routine laboratory investigations were within normal limit except hemoglobin and the swab culture test of the wound bed was reported infection of Staphylococcus aureus. This case study showed effective wound healing by topical application of Katupila paste and sesame oil.
白雀儿（Securinega leucopyrus (Willd.) Muell.）在印度被称为胡马里（Humari），在斯里兰卡被称为卡图皮拉（Katupila），英文名为具刺白饭树（Spinous fluggea）。它是一种适应沙漠气候的植物，以膏状形式局部用于治疗慢性和不愈合伤口。在斯里兰卡，卡图皮拉卡尔卡（膏剂）作为一种民间药物，常用于治疗急性和慢性伤口。本研究的目的是评估卡图皮拉草药膏在治疗杜什塔创伤（慢性伤口）中的作用。这是一项单例观察性创新病例研究。一名40岁女性右臀部有一个不愈合的感染伤口，病史2个月。检查发现有一个圆形伤口，有黑色坏死组织和腐肉，有恶臭，直径约3英寸×3英寸×1英寸，由化脓性局部感染引起。除血红蛋白外，常规实验室检查均在正常范围内，伤口床拭子培养试验报告为金黄色葡萄球菌感染。本病例研究表明，局部应用卡图皮拉膏和芝麻油可有效促进伤口愈合。
