7.
Diagnostic examination: Not provided.
Diagnostic Basis:
TCM:
The patient has suffered from muscular contraction and weakness of the lower
limbs, accompanied with difficulty in walking for 2 years, and the condition has
been aggravated for one month. Due to liver-kidney yin vacuity, the
essence-blood could not nourish his sinews and vessels, and then it gradually
results in flaccidity. As a result, his essence withers and the sinews become
dry, and the muscles of the legs decrease. Then the patient keeps a poor spirit.
Since the liver and kidneys are in charge of bones engendering essence. With the
deficiency of the marrow-essence, the patient feels aching pains of the lumbus
and knees with difficulty in walking. The patient¡¯s tongue was red with little
tongue coating. There were cracks in the middle of the tongue with teeth marks
at the edge of the tongue. The pulse was deep, thready and weak.
Western medicine: The patient has
suffered from muscular contraction and weakness of the lower limbs, accompanied
with difficulty in walking for 2 years, and the condition has been aggravated
for one month. He has suffered from
muscular contraction and weakness, accompanied by difficulty in walking
especially serious in his right leg. He had to walk with the support of the
crutches. He walked in
spastic gaits. The muscles of the
quadriceps femoris in his lower limbs were atrophic, and below his double knee
joints, there was obviously sunken edema. The examination to his raising
straight legs was (+). The
muscle strength of his
lower limbs was Grade
¢òwith
normal muscle hyperthyroidism. In Jan. 2006, he went to a local hospital for a
blood examination and EMG examination, and was diagnosed with
Motor Neuron
Disease
(MND).
Diagnostic Differentiation:
TCM:
The patient¡¯s wilting syndrome should be differentiated from impediment
syndrome. In the late period of impediment syndrome, because of aching limbs
joints, the patient can not do any movements. The limbs are out of work for such
a long time and the muscles are weak and atrophic, which is similar to
flaccidity. But impediment syndrome is generally characterized by painful
joints. The patients who suffer from wilting syndrome feel that the limbs are
weak and limp. In general, there is no pain in limbs joints. They are not
difficult to be distinguished in clinics.
Western medicine:
Wilting syndrome should be differentiated from myasthenia gravis, which is an
acquired autoimmune disease with the transferring obstacles of nerve-muscles,
and is caused by the autoimmune reaction resulting from the acetylcholine
receptor (AchR) of the striated muscle. It can occur at any age and there are
about 60 percent people stricken before 30 years old. Women are more often
affected than men are. The most obvious characteristics of MG are rapid
fatigability of the affected skeletal muscles, and will be improved with rest or
medicines that inhibit the activity of cholinesterase. MG patients of different
ages often have different clinical manifestations and courses, which are
different from those of wilting syndrome patients.
