Objectives: We designed this study to evaluate the effect of Korean medical treatment on complications of chemotherapy after curative resection in patient with ovarian carcinomaⅣ.
Methods: The patient got total abdominal hysterectomy and bilateral salpingooophorectomy (TAHBSO) on 9/4 and received chemotherapy on 10/7, 10/28, 11/18. During this period, the patient suffered from anorexia, dyspepsia, nausea, weight
loss and insomnia. We treated the patient with herbal medicine and acupuncture. The efficacy of treatment was evaluated with visual analog scale (Vas), weight and 36-item short form health survey instrument (SF-36).
Results: After treatment, although the scale values went ups and downs according to chemotherapy schedule, abdominal pain Vas changed 7 to 0, weight changed 46 kg to 51 kg. Also, SF-36 scores increased .
Conclusions: This case report shows that the Korean medical treatment is useful in the treatment of complications of chemotherapy after curative resection in patient with ovarian carcinomaⅣ.
