Abstract:Ectopic pregnancy is one of the common acute abdominal diseases in obstetrics and gynecology. Clinically, it is often divided into unruptured type and ruptured type, and the unruptured stage is the best time for traditional Chinese medicine intervention. Professor Cai Lianxiang believes that the pathogenesis of unruptured ectopic pregnancy in traditional Chinese medicine always belongs to the deficiency of root cause and the excess of manifestation, and intermingled deficiency and excess, in which the deficiency of qi and blood is the root cause and the blood stasis and heat is the manifestation. In terms of treatment, the unruptured ectopic pregnancy was treated by stages. In the first stage, the treatment was mainly to promote blood circulation and kill embryos; in the later stage, the treatment was mainly to eliminate symptoms and resolving hard mass. At the same time, in the later stage of treatment, on the basis of internal decoction, external application or enema of traditional Chinese medicine for removing stasis and clearing collaterals was often used to promote lump absorption, prevent pelvic adhesion, and promote fallopian tube recovery patency. Professor Cai is good at combining modern pharmacological research and drug use to provide psychological counseling for patients with ectopic pregnancy, and the idea of strengthening vital qi to eliminate pathogenic factor and protecting and maintaining vital qi throughout the treatment, so as to restore and retain the fertility function of patients to the greatest extent.
