's experience in treating low anterior resection syndrome (LARS) of rectal cancer. Based on the clinical experience in treating fecal incontinence after rectal cancer surgery
Professor
HUANG Jinchang
proposes that the primary pathogenesis of LARS is spleen-kidney
yang
deficiency with internal obstruction of damp turbidity. The treatment approach should focus on
strengthening the spleen
warming the kidney
and eliminating turbidity. The Baliao acupoints are specifically selected to eliminate turbidity
promote
yang
facilitate the
qi
flow of the viscera
and regulate the opening and closing of the anus. Emphasis is placed on deep needling at the Baliao acupoints
with flexible acupoint selection based on accompanying symptoms. Additionally
moxibustion and bloodletting cupping are used to restore regular bowel movements and improve the quality of life for patients who have undergone anus-preserving surgery for rectal cancer.
