| Abstract
|
| Dampness factor is one of six pathogenic factors of TCM, characterized by complication, season, region, conversion. The occurrence of hepatocarcinoma is related to the damp area with climate of warm, dampness, rainy. The dampness is divided into external factors and internal factors. The former is due to the abnormal climate, the latter is related to dysfunction of zang-organs and fu-organs. Therefore, the prevention and treatment of hepatocarcinoma should emphasize on removal of dampness. Strengthening the spleen and rectifying qi is one of the important principle in treating hepatocarcinoma. |
