Abstract

Uterine myoma is the most common gynecologic neoplasm in women. Western medical treatments for uterine myoma are hysterectomy, myomectomy, and the use of GnRH agonists etc. But in oriental medicine, it can be similar conceptional Jingha(癥瘕), which is a sort of pelvic mass, so it has been treated as blood stasis. The purpose of this study is to report 2 cases of treatment of uterine myoma, diagnosed by ultrasonographic examination. We used Sobokchukyetang-gami(少腹逐瘀湯加味) in one case diagnosed as blood stasis due to coldness(寒凝血滯) and Guibiondamtang-gami(歸脾溫膽湯加味) in the other case dignosed as blood insufficiency of the heart and spleen (心脾血虛). After this treatment, all the symptoms of uterine myoma were improved and the size of the uterine myoma was reduced significantly. So it indicates that the oriental medical treatment is effective on the 2 cases with uterine myoma, but continuous observation and study are needed.
