Abstract:Malignancy-associated gastroparesis is an important factor affecting the quality of life of patients with malignant tumors and is one of the common complications after surgery and radiotherapy. Western medicine treatment for this disease is limited and has unsatisfactory efficacy. Therefore, exploring treatment strategies in traditional Chinese medicine for this disease is of important clinical significance. Professor Cao Yang believes that the basic pathogenesis of this disease is spleen-yang and stomach-yin deficiency, and excessive cold and heat in the body affected by surgery and radiotherapy, accompanied by qi stagnation and phlegm dampness, and should be treated based on cold and heat syndrome differentiation. When medication, warm traditional Chinese medicine or heat-clearing drugs are chosen according to symptoms while promoting the circulation of qi and resolving dampness. Traditional Chinese medicine ointment rubbing is used as the main treatment method during the fasting period of patients, coordinated with other external therapies as appropriate. The comprehensive treatment plan with oral administration of concentrated traditional Chinese medicine decoction is added after oral feeding, which achieves high efficacy in clinical application, broadening the thinking for traditional Chinese medicine treatment of malignancy-associated gastroparesis. At the end of our article, a proven case is attached to verify its effectiveness.
