Objective There were few reports on the treatment of Adult-onset Still’s disease and Diffuse cerebral dysfunction. This oriental medical treatment shows the possibility of healing Adult-onset Still’s disease and Diffuse cerebral dysfunction, therefore we announce this.
Methods: The acupuncture, herbal medicine, herbal acupucture(Jahageo, Nockyong) therapies were applied for treating this patient’s chief symptom(chest discomfort, palpitation, rigidity, mentality change, global aphasia, dysphagia, coughing and sputum)
Results:1. Adult-onset Still’s disease is a rare systemic inflammatory disorder of unknown etiology, characterised by salmon-colored rash, intermittent spiking high fever, arthralgia and variety of systemic features. This is one type of Juvenile arthritis. 2. Diffuse cerebral dysfunction is an anoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, and most cause of this is the hypoxia caused by hypotention or respiratory distress. 3. After oriental medical treatments, his chief symptoms were improved.
Conclusion: The more study about oriental medical treatment on Adult-onset Still’s disease and Diffuse cerebral dysfunction is needed.
