Abstract:
Based on the idea that the pathogenic-etiologic mechanism is the " blockadeof liver channels, blood stasis and Qi stagnation resulting in malnutrition of liver due to iack of blood supply", the treating principle of " e-liminating stasis and supporting body resistance" was established with the combined use of extracts from peach -kernel plus cordicep hypha. 6 cases were thus treated. All of them received laparoscopy , and liver biopsy before and after the treatment. The gross appearance, histology and ultra. - microscopic structure and irnmuno - histo - chemistry were examined. Results showed that most of the activatedfat - storage cells after treatment were silent the I, III types of collagen depo - sited among the spaces of peri - sinusoid and liver cells and FN, LM weredecreased in part of the patient, resulting in less intrahepatic fibrosis, degradation of collagen fibres deposited in inter hepatic cellular spaces, inhibition and reversion of capillariza-tion oi liver sinusoid, hence, improvement of degener-ation of liver cells in most cases. The texture of the liver were turning normal with amelioration of portal hypertension and decrease of varicose mesenteric ves-seis. The liver turned red, swelling of falciform lig(?)-ment disappeared, and ascitis subsided.
