The patient, a 80-year-old man, had undergone aneurysmectomy and graft replacement of the right external iliac artery aneurysm and coil embolization and exclusion of the right internal iliac artery aneurysm in 2007. Computed tomography showed a rupture of the right internal iliac artery aneurysm in 2010. We performed aneurysmectomy and occlusion of the gluteal artery. The patient had a satisfactory postoperative course.

We experienced a case of paranoid schizophrenia whose negative symptoms such as fatigue and depression were successfully treated with kamishoyosan and hochuekkito. The combination of medical herbal extracts did not affect positive symptoms. Herbal medicine may play not only a supporting role in treating mental disorders in general but also an important role in improving negative symptoms of schizophrenia.
