Full Description
Buerger's Disease (Thromboangiitis Obliterans, TAO)is a definitive monograph bridging Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and Western biomedical science. Authored by Professor Ping Zheng, the text distills over 22 years of clinical practice and research at Shanghai Ruijin Hospital in China and the Portia Clinic in the United States, offering a groundbreaking perspective on Buerger's Disease.Moving beyond traditional understandings of TAO, the book presents the author's pivotal research identifying the condition as an autoimmune disorder driven by multiple hypersensitivity reactions and hypercoagulability. It provides a comprehensive framework covering epidemiology, novel diagnostic staging (SGD - Stage Grade Degree, STP - State Type Pain), and innovative integrative therapies. These approaches — including strong electroacupuncture, specialized herbal formulas, western medicine complex formulas, and low-dose herbal anesthesia — have achieved remarkable clinical outcomes, with zero mortality and the lowest recorded amputation rates in the author's cohorts.Richly illustrated with pathological data, case studies, and clinical insights, this volume is an essential resource for vascular, hematology, and biomedical specialists, researchers, and students — as well as patients — seeking to advance precision medicine, limb preservation, and integrative care strategies for TAO.
