Abstract: Objective To investigate the clinical effect of modified Guishao Simiao decoction combined with external washing by traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis. Methods Forty patients with recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis treated at Department of Gynecology, East Dongguan Central Hospital from January 2019 to March 2020 were selected as the study objects, and were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group by the random number table method, with 20 cases in each group. The observation group were (36.82±7.56) years old, and the control group (36.76±7.59). The control group were treated with fluconazole capsules and miconazole nitrate suppository. The observation group were treated with modified Guishao Simiao decoction and externally washed by traditional Chinese medicine. Both groups were treated for 4 weeks. The clinical efficacies, times for the disappearance of related symptoms, and recurrence were compared between the two groups. The independent-sample t and χ2 tests were applied. Results The total effective rate in the observation group was higher than that in the control group [95.00% (19/20) vs. 70.00% (14/20), P<0.05]. The times for the disappearance of pruritus vulvae, mucosal redness, abnormal leucorrhea, and frequent urination and odynuria in the observation group were shorter than those in the control group [(2.31±0.46) d vs. (2.87±0.54) d, (2.79±0.56) d vs. (3.25±0.62) d, (1.38±0.35) d vs. (2.10±0.43) d,  and (2.57±0.43) d vs. (3.16±0.58) d; all P<0.05]. The recurrence rates after 6 and 12 months' follow up in the observation group were lower than those in the control group [10.00% (2/20) vs. 40.00% (8/20) and 15.00% (3/20) vs. 50.00% (10/20); both P<0.05]. Conclusions Modified Guishao Simiao decoction combined with external washing by traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis is beneficial to improve related clinical symptoms, and has remarkable clinical effect and a lower recurrence rate, so it is worth being generalized.

摘要: 目的 探讨加味桂芍四妙汤联合中药外洗治疗复发性外阴阴道假丝酵母菌病的临床效果。方法 选取2019年1月至2020年3月东莞市东部中心医院妇科收治的40例复发性外阴阴道假丝酵母菌病患者为研究对象,随机数字表法分为观察组和对照组,各20例。观察组年龄(36.82±7.56)岁,对照组年龄(36.76±7.59)岁。对照组口服氟康唑胶囊+外用硝酸咪康唑栓治疗,观察组加味桂芍四妙汤联合中药外洗治疗,两组患者皆用药4周。比较两组临床疗效、相关症状消失时间及复发情况。采用独立样本t检验和χ2检验。结果 观察组总有效率高于对照组[95.00%(19/20)比70.00%(14/20),P<0.05]。观察组外阴瘙痒、黏膜红肿、白带异常、尿频尿痛等相关症状消失时间短于对照组[(2.31±0.46)d比(2.87±0.54)d、(2.79±0.56)d比(3.25±0.62)d、(1.38±0.35)d比(2.10±0.43)d、(2.57±0.43)d比(3.16±0.58)d,均P<0.05]。观察组随访6个月、12个月的复发率低于对照组[10.00%(2/20)比40.00%(8/20)、15.00%(3/20)比50.00%(10/20),均P<0.05]。结论 加味桂芍四妙汤联合中药外洗治疗复发性外阴阴道假丝酵母菌病更有利于改善相关临床症状,具有更为显著的临床效果和更低的复发率,值得推广应用。
