Objectives : The purpose of this study is to analyze and understand the trend of Korean medical treatment on ptosis.
Methods : From the domestic databases KCI, KISS, OASIS, KTKP, 16 studies were selected using the keyword ‘ptosis’, published after 2000.
Results : Selected 16 studies contain 19 cases in which mainly acupuncture and herbal medicine were practiced to treat ptosis. Treatment period varies from 12 to 134 days. When Korean medical treatment was started before 10 days from the onset, average of treatment period is about 28.6 days, but after 40 days, it increases three times longer. It takes 1.5 times longer to treat ptosis caused from central nerve than which from peripheral nerve.
Conclusion : According to the results, Korean medicine can be effective treatment for ptosis which mostly depends on surgical treatment currently. tments of purpura and vasculitis up to date and some points that may have clinical significance.
