title: [The relation of typing of gastric carcinoma according to traditional Chinese medicine theories and clinical pathologic classification].
abstract: 102 cases of gastric carcinoma which have been removed by partial gastrectomy and have pathological diagnoses and follow-up results are reported. The relationship between their preoperational syndromes of TCM and pathological, TNM classification and post-operational survival rate has been studied. There is indication that the type of Ganwei Buhe (the dispersing function of the liver is disturbed and affects the stomach) manifests the earlier stage of the gastric carcinoma and the majority of cases are in stage 1 or 2 in TNM, the 5-year survival rate with surgery being 46%. The majority of cases of the types of Pishen Yangxu (deficiency of energy in the Spleen and Kidney), Yinxu Neire (the febrile syndrome of the viscera caused by the insufficient primordial energy) and Qixue Shuangkui (deficiency of both energy and blood) are in stage 3 or 4 in TNM, the 5-year survival rate with surgery differently being 5,8,12% respectively. The type of Qizhi Xueyu (energy stagnancy and blood stasis) is between the abovementioned two groups, with a 5-year survival rate of 40%.
