This is a long-term survival case report about anaplastic oligodendroglioma treated with tumor resection, radiotherapy and Sasang constitutional medicine. 48 year-old female diagnosed with left frontal anaplastic oligodendroglioma after suffering headache and cognition problem for four months in 2013. She took conventional radiotherapy after brain surgery and took Korean herbal medication instead of standard chemotherapy for 11 years. The patient was identified as Taeeumin Joyeol (Dry-Heat) symptomatic pattern and was treated with modified Yeoldahanso-tang. She has survived without neurologic symptoms or recurrence more than 11 years. We suggest that integrative approach including Sasang constitutional medicine can be a meaningful treatment option for malignant brain tumor. Further studies with more cases should be performed to establish proper treatment protocol of integrative medicine for brain tumor.
