Features: This book, in a diary format, authentically and dynamically records the clinical practice of cancer treatment with Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). The diaries were written by students of Professor Wang Sanhu in Xi'an and Liuzhou over a span of two years, primarily documenting treatment cases, sharing clinical learning insights, and showcasing the doctor-patient relationship. It can provide references for doctors, patients, and their families. The serialized article "Chinese Medicine Cancer Treatment in Progress—Diary of Professor Wang Sanhu's Clinical Practice" has been for over 10 months, during which we received numerous letters and calls from readers. Some shared their views on the theory, methods, and prescriptions of TCM for the syndrome differentiation and treatment of various cancers, others discussed their personal insights on the cases in the text, and some cancer patients sought medical advice and treatment. The profound theoretical connotations, rich clinical experience, and the author's writing style of excavating the academic thoughts of the mentor and faithfully recording the clinical diagnosis and treatment processes have resonated strongly with readers. As the authors state, what is recorded in the text is only a small snapshot of the process of TCM cancer treatment, a mere drop in the ocean of TCM medicine. We hope more TCM practitioners will share their experiences in syndrome differentiation and treatment, their insights into TCM therapy, and their reflections from clinical practice through various means on the platform provided by China Journal of Traditional Chinese Medicine to exchange ideas and refine their skills, thereby improving diagnostic and treatment levels and alleviating the suffering of more patients.
