Abstract:Objective To observe the clinical effect of Astragaloside on radioactive dermatitis of chest wall in breast cancer patients. Methods Sixty cases of breast cancer, who suffered from radiation dermatitis after chest wall radiotherapy, were divided into treatment group and control group. The wounds of the patients in the treatment group were plastered with Astragaloside. As controls, the wounds of the patients in the control group were plastered with 3% boric acid or 1% iodophor. Results The wound healing time of the control group was significantly longer than that of the treatment group, and the total effective rate of the treatment group was significantly higher than that of the control group (P = 0.012). Conclusions Astragaloside can effectively cure the radioactive dermatitis in breast cancer patients and shorten the wound healing time.
