导致患者死亡的，是使用了导滞之剂，将脾虚发肿的证候误治所致。
有一位妇女双侧腹股沟（便毒）肿痛，伴有内热、口渴，饮食无味，肢体倦怠，阴道内有梗阻感，小便红赤涩痛。辨证为肝脾阴虚兼湿热，使用加味归脾汤治疗后痊愈。后来因愤怒导致病情复发，出现小腹肿胀、小便不利，使用小柴胡汤加山栀、川芎、当归，以清利肝火，胀痛立刻停止。随后又用加味逍遥散，调理并补益肝火而康复。
另一位妇女，双侧腹股沟肿痛，伴有寒热往来及内热，小便红赤涩痛，胸胁部气机不畅。此为肝火亢动损伤脾气，使用补中益气汤加茯苓，服用数剂后症状稍减；接着给予加味归脾汤，所有症状全部消退。再用加味逍遥散治疗而完全痊愈。
还有一位妇女，小腹痞闷胀满，小便不利，内热、身体疲倦、懒于进食。此为气血虚弱兼有肝火，使用八珍汤加柴胡、山栀、龙胆草进行治疗，病情得以安定。
又一位妇女，阴道内有梗阻感，双侧腹股沟肿痛，伴有寒热、不能进食，小便频数，小腹沉重下坠。我认为这是由肝脾郁结所致。先用补中益气汤加山栀、茯苓、车前子、青皮，以清肝火、升脾气，再用加味归脾汤，服用二十余剂调理脾郁而痊愈。

The patient died due to the misapplication of purgative agents (Dao Zhi Ji), which transformed a syndrome of Spleen deficiency with edema into a fatal condition.
A female patient presented with bilateral inguinal swelling and pain, internal heat, thirst, lack of appetite, limb fatigue, a sensation of obstruction in the vagina, and red, scanty, and painful urination. This was diagnosed as Liver and Spleen Yin deficiency with damp-heat. She was cured using Jia Wei Gui Pi Tang (Modified Guipi Decoction). Later, the condition recurred after an episode of anger, presenting with lower abdominal swelling and difficult urination. Xiao Chai Hu Tang (Minor Bupleurum Decoction) was administered with added Gardenia (Shan Zhi), Ligusticum chuanxiong (Xiong), and Angelica sinensis (Gui) to clear and drain Liver fire, resulting in immediate cessation of distension and pain. Subsequently, Jia Wei Xiao Yao San (Modified Xiaoyao Powder) was used to regulate and tonify the Liver, leading to full recovery.
Another female patient suffered from bilateral inguinal swelling and pain, alternating chills and fever, internal heat, red and painful urination, and chest and hypochondriac stagnation. This indicated Liver fire agitation injuring Spleen Qi. Bu Zhong Yi Qi Tang (Tonify the Middle and Augment the Qi Decoction) with added Poria (Fu Ling) was prescribed for several doses, yielding slight improvement. Then, Jia Wei Gui Pi Tang (Modified Guipi Decoction) was given, causing all symptoms to subside. Finally, Jia Wei Xiao Yao San (Modified Xiaoyao Powder) was used for complete recovery.
A third female patient experienced epigastric fullness and stuffiness, difficult urination, internal heat, body fatigue, and anorexia. This was attributed to Qi and Blood deficiency combined with Liver fire. Ba Zhen Tang (Eight Treasure Decoction) with added Bupleurum (Chai), Gardenia (Zhi), and Gentiana scabra (Dan Cao) was administered, stabilizing the condition.
A fourth female patient presented with a sensation of obstruction in the vagina, bilateral inguinal swelling and pain, alternating chills and fever, inability to eat, frequent urination, and a heavy, bearing-down sensation in the lower abdomen. I attributed this to Liver and Spleen Qi stagnation. Initially, Bu Zhong Yi Qi Tang (Tonify the Middle and Augment the Qi Decoction) with added Gardenia (Zhi), Poria (Fu Ling), Plantago seed (Che Qian Zi), and Tangerine peel (Qing Pi) was used to clear Liver fire and raise Spleen Qi. This was followed by Jia Wei Gui Pi Tang (Modified Guipi Decoction), taken for over twenty doses to regulate Spleen stagnation, resulting in a cure.
