Analysis of Liu Fengbin's experience in treating chronic atrophic gastritis with dysplasia by using couplet medicines
Professor Liu Fengbin has unique insights and experience in the diagnosis and treatment of chronic atrophic gastritis with traditional Chinese medicine.He believes that its root cause lies in spleen deficiency,while qi stagnation,damp(heat)obstruction,blood stasis are its manifestations.If the disease is not controlled in time and effectively,it may lead to results of deficient spleen qi and cementation of poisonous damp-heat and static blood,and ultimately the inflammation and precancerous transformation.That is,deficiency of spleen qi and cementation of damp-heat and blood stasis constitute the key pathogeneses of chronic atrophic gastritis with dysplasia.After years of clinical practice and verification,Professor Liu Fengbin develops Fuzheng Tongluo Jiedu Formula as the core prescription for the treatment of this disease.Meanwhile,he selects different couplet medicines flexibly based on the five-zang viscera correlation theory.He advocates harmonizing the stomach for descending adverse qi,so that the blood stasis and damp-heat can be dispersed.In addition,Professor Liu Fengbin underlines dispersing stagnated liver qi,ventilating lung qi,and tranquillizing the mind to help the spleen and stomach return to their normal physiological functions.Besides,it is necessary to tonify the kidney,which helps strengthen the spleen.He is also good at using couplet medicines for promoting blood circulation and detoxication to directly target the affected areas,so that the lesions can be quickly reversed.
