To explore the differentiation and treatment of pulmonary nodules from the pathogenesis of"collaterals damage-collaterals stagnation-collaterals toxicity"
The differentiation and treatment of pulmonary nodules were summarized from collateral disease theory.It is con-cluded that the pathogenesis of pulmonary nodules from occurrence to malignant degeneration mainly goes through three stages:positive lesion(collaterals lesion),nodal shape(collaterals stagnation)and malignant lesion(collaterals toxin).The core patho-genesis is deficiency of Qi Yang and deficiency of lung collaterals.Phlegm stasis condensation,collaterals stagnation stagnation bi;Yin knot accumulated heat,collaterals toxic hyperactivity change;The principle of differentiation and treatment is mainly ben-eficial to fuzheng Qi,warming Yang and clearing collaterals;Dispelling phlegm and stasis,dispersing knots and collaterals;Nourishing Yin and moistening lung,detoxifying and clearing collaterals.The specific application of Tongluo drugs in pulmonary nodules was further discussed from insect drugs,rattan drugs,tangxin drugs and toning drugs,in order to provide reference for clinical differentiation and treatment of pulmonary nodules.
