Abstract:This article summarizes Professor Gao Zhan’s experience in the treatment of prostate cancer and its complications based on the theory of “prevent progression after disease onset”. Professor Gao Zhan believes that for prostate cancer, first of all, for hormone-sensitive prostate cancer, it is appropriate to eliminate pathogenic factor as the main, strengthening vital qi as a supplement, clearing heat, promoting blood, and detoxification as the main, supplemented by supplementing qi and replenishing the spleen to prolong the period; for castration-resistant prostate cancer, strengthening vital qi as the main, eliminate pathogenic factor as a supplement, and clearing heat, activating blood, and detoxification, delay systemic metastasis, prolong survival. Secondly, for the related complications after radical prostatectomy of prostate cancer, such as postoperative urinary incontinence, metabolic complications after androgen deprivation treatment, and adverse reactions during perichemotherapy, the traditional Chinese medicine treatment based on the theory of “prevent progression after disease onset” can significantly control symptoms and improve adverse reactions. In clinical practice, Professor Gao Zhan selects reasonable treatment plans for patients at different stages of disease and covering complications according to the theory of “prevent progression after disease onset”, which has an important guiding role in the prevention and treatment of prostate cancer.
