AI Technical Summary
The etiology and pathogenesis of vulvar leukoplakia are not yet clear. Western medicine treatment has problems such as long-term use, large adverse reactions, poor compliance, and unsatisfactory results, making it difficult to cure completely and seriously affecting the quality of life of patients.
The treatment utilizes a combination of traditional Chinese medicines, including oral and topical medications. The oral medications are distributed throughout the body's tissues and organs via blood circulation, while the topical medications act directly on the affected area. The combination of these two treatments regulates the body's internal environment, enhances the body's resistance, promotes blood circulation and removes blood stasis, nourishes and regenerates tissue, and promotes local skin recovery.
It significantly improves itching symptoms and atrophy in patients with vulvar leukoplakia, effectively repairs skin lesions, promotes skin regeneration, improves quality of life, reduces adverse reactions, and has a better therapeutic effect than using triamcinolone acetonide ointment alone.

TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of traditional Chinese medicine, and particularly relates to a traditional Chinese medicine composition for treating vulvar leukoplakia. BACKGROUND
[0002] Vulvar leukoplakia, also known as vulvar leukoplakia or vulvar dystrophy, is a common gynecological chronic disease, mainly manifested as pigmentation, pruritus, pain, and even ulceration and atrophy of the skin and mucosa of the vulva. Its pathogenesis is not fully clear, and it may be related to genetic susceptibility, immune regulation abnormalities, endocrine disorders, infections, and local irritation. Pathological features include excessive keratinization of the epidermis, thickening of the prickle layer, and infiltration of lymphocytes in the superficial dermis. The main clinical manifestation is intractable pruritus, which is more severe at night, and may involve the clitoris, labia minora and other parts. Severe cases can lead to dyspareunia and vaginal stenosis.
[0003] At present, the etiology and pathogenesis of the disease has not been clearly defined. Many clinical studies suggest that the disease may be related to autoimmune, genetic predisposition, and low endogenous sex hormone levels. Various pathogenic factors cause nutritional disorders in the deep connective tissue of the vulva, and there is microcirculatory dysfunction in the local dermal microvessels and collagen fibers. The epithelium is caused by malnutrition, leading to degenerative changes, resulting in metabolic disorders in the normal skin of the vulva, microvessel hypoxia, and the role of tyrosinase is affected. The synthesis of melanin is affected, resulting in the occurrence of the disease in the vulvar mucosa and skin.
[0004] Reports show that 10% of patients develop malignant lesions due to delayed treatment or prolonged illness, and repeated attacks eventually develop into malignant lesions, seriously affecting the physical and mental health of patients and the quality of life. Vulvar leukoplakia has a long course and a high recurrence rate. The pathogenesis of Western medicine is not yet clear, and it is difficult to completely cure the disease.
[0005] At present, clinical treatment of Western medicine mainly applies topical glucocorticoids and other drugs, and cooperates with physical therapy. Ultrasonic, liquid nitrogen, and cryotherapy are also commonly used. However, such drugs have the problems of large adverse reactions after long-term use, and can cause great pain to patients. At the same time, there are problems of poor compliance and unsatisfactory long-term application effects, which further affect the prognosis of the disease. SUMMARY

Cure: All clinical symptoms disappeared, efficacy index ≥ 90%; Significantly effective: Significant improvement in vulvar itching, skin elasticity, lesion extent, and skin color after treatment, 60% ≤ efficacy index < 90%; Effective: Improvement in vulvar itching, skin elasticity, lesion extent, and skin color after treatment, 20% ≤ efficacy index < 60%; Ineffective: No improvement in vulvar itching, skin elasticity, lesion extent, or skin color after treatment, efficacy index < 20%. Efficacy index = (Pre-treatment score - Post-treatment score) / Pre-treatment score × 100%. Total effective rate = (Number of cured cases + Number of significantly effective cases + Number of effective cases) / Total number of cases × 100%.
[0056] Statistical methods: SPSS 22.0 software was used for statistical processing and analysis. Quantitative data were expressed as mean and standard deviation. x (ˉ±s) indicates that paired t-tests were used for within-group comparisons and independent samples t-tests were used for between-group comparisons; P<0.05 was considered statistically significant.
[0057] Methods for recording and reporting adverse events: Adverse clinical events may occur during treatment. In the event of any adverse events or other emergencies, the time of occurrence, clinical manifestations, treatment process, and duration of the adverse event should be recorded in detail on the case report form, including any medications used during transport. If abnormal test results are found, the patient must be followed up until the test results return to normal, or to pre-treatment levels, or until it is confirmed that the abnormality is unrelated to the investigational drug. In the event of a serious adverse event, a serious adverse reaction indication form should be completed and reported to superiors and health authorities within 24 hours.
[0058] Treatment results: Table 1 Comparison of age and disease duration between the two groups of patients Table 2 Comparison of therapeutic effects between the two groups.
[0059] Of the 40 cases in the treatment group, 6 were cured, 16 showed significant improvement, 14 showed improvement, and 4 showed no improvement, with a total effective rate of 90.00%.
[0060] In the control group of 40 cases, 1 case was cured, 10 cases showed significant improvement, 16 cases showed improvement, and 13 cases showed no improvement, with a total effective rate of 72.50%.
[0061] Table 3 Comparison of TCM syndrome scores before and after treatment.
[0062] After treatment, the scores for vulvar itching, vulvar pain, depigmentation, vulvar skin elasticity, and lesion extent in both groups were significantly different from those before treatment (P < 0.05).
