The experience of CAO Shili in treatment of membranous nephropathy( MN) with the therapy of pungent dredging and removing obstruction in collaterals was summarized. It is believed that the disease location of MN is renal collaterals
and the key pathogenesis is kidney collateral stagnation
which is running through the whole course of MN. Treating from collaterals is the important principle in treating MN
and the therapy of pungent dredging and removing obstruction in collaterals in the treatment of MN is proposed. Clinically
the methods of expelling wind and dredging collaterals
expelling dampness and dredging collaterals
and expelling stasis and dredging collaterals are used to treat MN based on syndrome differentiation.
