The classic acupuncture theory is an important component of the basic theory of TCM. Due to clinical disciplinary division and other factors, the relationship of acupuncture theory with each division of "Chinese herbal formula and pulse" has been gradually alienated. In this paper, by taking the progress of syndrome/pattern differentiation and treatment of 3 medical cases as the examples, the feasibility of clinical application of classical formulas guided by the classic acupuncture theory and clinical effect are explained. It shows that the accuracy of syndrome/pattern differentiation and the therapeutic effect can be obviously improved if the classic acupuncture theory is correctly applied to the syndrome/pattern differentiation and treatment with classical Chinese herbal formulas. It also proves the inner communication and high complementarity in terms of the theory between acupuncture and classical Chinese herbal formula. It is anticipated to provide the references for the theoretic integration among academic disciplines and for the mutual reference as well as for the application of the characteristic theories among specialties.
经典针灸理论是中医基础理论的重要组成部分。由于临床学科划分等因素，针灸理论与“中药方剂与脉象”各分科的关系逐渐疏离。本文以3例医案的辨证论治过程为例，阐述经典针灸理论指导经典方剂临床应用的可行性及临床疗效。结果表明，将经典针灸理论正确应用于中药经典方剂的辨证论治，可明显提高辨证准确性及治疗效果。同时也证明了针灸与中药经典方剂在理论上存在内在相通性和高度互补性。期望为学科间的理论整合、相互借鉴以及特色理论在专科中的应用提供参考。
