Objectives This case study was aimed to report improvement of taeum-in patient with chronic kidney disesase who had voiding dysfunction after intracerebral hemorrhage using Yeoldahanso-tanggamibang. Methods A patient who complained of voiding dysfunction after intracerebral hemorrhage was administered with Yeoldahanso-tanggamibang through sasang consitutional medicine approach. To evaluate the improvement of voiding dysfunction, the number of nelaton catheterizations after removal of foley catheter and the amount of post void residual volume were compared, and laboratory follow-up was performed to determine whether renal function deteriorated. Results After treatment with Yeoldahanso-tanggamibang for 8 weeks, the number of nelaton catheterizations after removal of foley catheter decreased, the amount of post void residual volume decreased, and the renal function did not change. Conclusions This case study suggests the significance of Yeoldahanso-tanggamibang treatment for taeum-in patient who had voiding dysfunction after intracerebral hemorrhage.

Intraventricular hemorrhage long after successful encephaloduroarterio synangiosis (EDAS) is very rare. The effect of revascularization surgery for preventing hemorrhagic event of moyamoya disease remains controversial. We report a 17-year-old female with intracerebral hemorrhage and intraventricular hemorrahge 10 years after successful EDAS. Even though cerebral vessels angiography showed good collateral circulations without specific weak points, a cerebral hemorrhage could occur in patient with ischemic type of moyamoya disease long after successful indirect bypass operations. Good collateralization of cerebral angiography or magnetic resonance perfusion image after indirect bypass surgery would ensure against ischemic symptoms, not a hemorrhage. And, thus a life-time follow-up strategy might be necessary even if a good collateral circulation has been established.
