Abstract
|
Liver cirrhosis is a chronic, progressive, diffuse disease of the liver. It is a late stage of many chronic liver diseases and belongs to liver organ disease according to Western medicine. According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, it results from abnormal function of "the liver storing the blood and governing the free flow of Qi."This paper has reviewed the physiology and pathology of liver in TCM, and the theory of "the liver storing blood" demonstrated by Western medicine. We has explored the perspective of treating cir-rhosis with traditional Chinese medicine by nourishing liver Yin and blood. |
