Professor Cheng considers it's the deficiency-excess mixing illness whose pathological base is blood stasis and root is the deficiency of Yin and Yang, Qi and blood. So in terms of treatment, Professor Cheng praises highly the way of strengthening the body resistance to eliminate pathogenic factors. Strengthening the body resistance and expelling evil at the same time can achieve the purpose of treatment. In the adjustment of Yin and Yang ,Qi and blood, Professor Cheng attaches importance to treating middle burner. On the treatment of dysmenorrhea, Professor Cheng is able to capture xuefu zhuyu decoction and bazhen decoction and pays attention to menstrual cycle therapy. In addition, Professor Cheng often uses jingui wenjing decoction for infertility and re-understands the decoction by meridians theory and circular motion theory. Furthermore, Professor Cheng's treatment in reserving follicle, promoting ovulation and developing follicle is distinctive by traditional Chinese medicine.展开更多

Among these cases, 548 underwent dissection of the recurrent laryngeal nerve, while 4 796 did not. There were 12 cases of recurrent laryngeal nerve injury following recurrent laryngeal nerve dissection (injury rate of 2.2%) and 512 cases of recurrenl laryngeal nerve injury in those not undergoing nerve dissection (injury rate of 10.7%). This difference remained statistically significant between the two groups in terms of type of thyroid disease, type of surgery, and number of surgeries. Among the 548 cases undergoing recurrent laryngeal nerve dissection, 128 developed anatomical variations of the recurrent laryngeal nerve (incidence rate of 23.4%), but no recurrent laryngeal nerve injury was found. In addition, the incidence of recurrent laryngeal nerve injury was significantly lower in patients with the infedor parathyroid gland and middle thyroid veins used as landmarks for locating the recurrent laryngeal nerve compared with those with the entry of the recurrent laryngeal nerve into the larynx as a landmark. These findings indicate that anatomical variations of the recurrent laryngeal nerve are common, and that dissecting the recurrent laryngeal nerve during thyroid surgery is an effective means of preventing nerve injury.展开更多
