Abstract

|
|
The two case reports here presented are based on an inpatient with lateral medullary infarction, known as Wallenberg’s syndrome with chief complains of central dizziness and cerebellar ataxia, and an inpatient with infarctions of cerebellar, pontine, and lacunar thalamic region. QSCCII was performed while the patient was hospitalized and, by consultation with the Dept. of Sasang Constitutional Medicine, the patient was diagnosed with Taeumin. Thus, an oriental medical therapy of Cheongsimyeonjatang, acupuncture, and moxibustion was carried out. As a result the degree of dizziness decreased noticeably while other symptoms improved as well. Before leaving the hospital, the degree of cerebellar ataxia also improved and the patient was able to go on foot by himself. In conclusion, significant improvements were observed in cerebellar and a pontine infarction patients who suffered central dizziness and cerebellar ataxia through Sasang medical therapy.
