This is a case of lung adenocarcinoma with brain metastasis, classified as non-small cell lung cancer. The patient received only palliative brain radiotherapy with no chemotherapy. Only the drug Iressa and Chinese herbal medicine were used, and this stabilized the patient’s condition. Iressa is effective in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer, with possible side effects of diarrhoea and skin rash, which Chinese herbal medicine can help alleviate. The patient was diagnosed as having qi and yin deficiency with phlegm and toxin aggregation. Sha Shen, Mai Dong, Tai Zi Shen, Bai Zhu, raw Huang Qi, Fu Ling, Wu Wei Zi, Gou Qi Zi, Nü Zhen Zi, Tian Hua Fen and Shan Yu Rou can replenish qi, nourish yin and strengthen healthy qi; Xia Ku Cao, Bei Mu, Jie Geng and Cao He Che can remove phlegm and masses; Ji Xue Teng can promote blood circulation and remove obstruction in channels; Quan Xie and Wu Gong can calm wind and relieve convulsions and are especially good for brain metastasis; and Dan Pi, Bai Xian Pi and Di Fu Zi can cool blood and clear the skin to deal with the side effects of Iressa on skin, which helped the patient to survive for more than two years after brain metastasis.
