Abstract:
A 14-year-old girl with atopic dermatitis was treated by Kampo-medicine. Both her clinical picture and laboratory findings were evidently consistent with those of atopic dermatitis. Skin Iesions were prominent on her forehead, upper eye lides, cervical region and cubital regions. The percentage of eosinophilic leucocyte was 9% before the therapy of Reikeijutsukan-To and was 1% after the therapy. The value of IgE (<500) was 3, 091 before the therapy and was 3, 567 after that. Radioallergosorbent test (RAST) was abnormal and essentially not changed before and after the therapy. The mechanism of the therapeutic effect of Reikeijutsukan-To was briefly discussed from the stand point of “whole body pathology”
