Popis: To search for a method for increasing therapeutic effect on vitiligo.One hundred and sixteen cases were randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group, 58 cases in each group. The treatment group were treated with electro-plum-blossom needle therapy plus catgut implantation at local acupoints under TDP radiation, and the control group with external application of sicorten. Their short-term and long-term therapeutic effects were observed.The short-term total effective rate was 98.3% in the treatment group and 74.1% in the control group with a significant difference between the two groups (P0.05).Electro-plum-blossom needle therapy plus catgut implantation at acupoints has a better therapeutic effect on vitiligo with no adverse effect.
