ABSTRACT
We reported that a patient with ascites arising from liver cirrhosis was successfully treated with Dai-kentyu-to. The case was a 67-year-old woman who was diagnosed as having C-type chronic hepatitis. After the operation of gastric cancer, ascites appeared. She was treated by diureatics, but ascites increased. When she was operated on for an abdominal hernia, the liver was cirrhotic. She lost appetite and was fatigued. She visited our clinic to undergo Kampo therapy. Hochu-ekki-to, Gorei-san, Sho-kenchu-to were given for her symptoms, but had no effects. However, since she began taking Dai-kenchu-to for her cold and rumbling abdomen, her ascites decreased gradually, and diuretics were stopped.
