RATIONALE
Cancer-related fatigue (CRF) is a persistent, subjective sense of tiredness or exhaustion experienced by cancer patients. Acupuncture is a safe and feasible optional method for adjunctive treatment for CRF. However, the therapeutic effect of the Fatigue Three-Needle acupuncture therapy in patients with CRF has not been well-investigated.
PATIENT CONCERNS
A 53-year-old woman had been experiencing fatigue since the radical resection of sigmoid colon cancer 2 years ago, for which she underwent traditional Chinese medicine treatment.
DIAGNOSIS
After some review, she was diagnosed with CRF. Although she underwent traditional Chinese medicine treatment, she continued experiencing fatigue symptoms.
INTERVENTIONS
When she visited our hospital, she was treated with the Fatigue Three-Needle for 3 sessions a week, 30 minutes per session.
OUTCOMES
After 4 weeks of treatment, the patient felt refreshed and relieved from the fatigue.
LESSONS
The finding from this case provides further evidence for the therapeutic benefits of the Fatigue Three-Needle therapy for patients with CRF, suggesting that acupuncture treatment with the Fatigue Three-Needle is an effective option for patients with CRF.
理论依据
癌症相关疲劳（CRF）是癌症患者持续存在的主观疲倦或疲惫感。针灸是辅助治疗CRF的一种安全可行的选择方法。然而，疲劳三针针刺疗法对CRF患者的治疗效果尚未得到充分研究。
患者情况
一名53岁女性自2年前乙状结肠癌根治性切除术后一直感到疲劳，为此她接受了中医治疗。
诊断
经过复查，她被诊断为CRF。尽管她接受了中医治疗，但仍持续出现疲劳症状。
干预措施
她来我院就诊时，接受了疲劳三针治疗，每周3次，每次30分钟。
结果
治疗4周后，患者感到精神焕发，疲劳症状得到缓解。
经验教训
该病例的发现为疲劳三针疗法对CRF患者的治疗益处提供了进一步证据，表明疲劳三针针刺疗法是CRF患者的一种有效治疗选择。
