초록

This case report discusses a patient diagnosed with L1 burst fracture, right lateral femoral condyle and proximal tibial and fibular head and neck comminuted fractures, and left medial femoral condyle and suspected tibial fractures after a traffic accident. She received integrated Korean medicine treatment, including motion-style acupuncture treatment (MSAT), electroacupuncture, acupuncture, herbal medicine, moxibustion, and cupping therapy for 112 days. The scores improved for the low back pain Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) (from 7 to 3), Oswestry Disability Index (from 94 to 38), bilateral leg pain NRS (from 6 to 2), Lysholm Knee Scoring Scale (from 0 to 66), left ankle manual muscle test (from Poor- to Normal), Korean version of the modified Barthel index (from 32 to 92), and EuroQol 5-dimension 5-level (from 25 to 9), as did mobility. Radiological scans also showed fracture healing. This study suggests the potential of MSAT in high-energy polytrauma care, particularly for fractures.
