Differentiation and treatment of aplastic anemia based on the pathogenesis theory of marrow depletion with toxin accumulation
Aplastic anemia (AA) is a bone marrow hematopoietic failure disease with a complex pathogenesis, mainly involving hematopoietic stem cells, the bone marrow hematopoietic microenvironment, and immune factors. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) shows significant advantages in treating this disease. Most practitioners consider kidney essence deficiency as the fundamental pathological basis throughout the disease course, with treatment primarily focused on tonifying the kidney and nourishing marrow. Professor XU Ruirong believes the key pathogenesis lies in marrow depletion with toxin accumulation, as internal accumulation of pathogenic toxins can also damage the bone marrow. Treatment should be based on tonifying the kidney as the root, clearing toxins as the secondary approach, and supplemented by resolving stasis. Guided by the principle of nourishing marrow and removing toxin, TCM decoctions are often combined with herbal ointments. Decoctions act quickly and allow flexible modification, while ointments focus on tonifying deficiency and regulating the body. The combination of both therapies is complementary and enhances overall therapeutic efficacy.
