Abstract
Objectives : The purpose of this study is to report the improvement after the Korean medical treatment about a severe hematuria patient after ureterolith lithotripsy. Methods : This study was carried out on 60 year-old female patient who suffered from severe hematuria. We diagnosed a severe hematuria patient after ureterolith lithotripsy as kidney deficiency and blood deficiency pattern in the symptom-differentiation system of Korean medicine and applied herbal medicine, acupuncture and moxibustion to the patient. Results : After Korean medical treatment, we observed improvement of the symptom process by Numeric Rating Scale (NRS), hematologic findings and urinalysis. Blood count of blood and urine had been in the normal range, and NRS of three symptoms had dropped below 0.5. Conclusions : We concluded that Korean medical treatment was an effective treatment for a hematuria patient after ureterolith lithotripsy.
