RESUMO
O presente artigo tem como objetivo dar a conhecer o sucesso do tratamento de um caso de fibroadenoma com recurso a acupunctura, fitoterapia e dietética. Foi seguido o caso de uma paciente de 30 anos que apresentava vários nódulos de diferentes tamanhos, tendo os maiores uma dimensão de 3,6cm e 1,6cm. Os estudos imagiológicos diagnosticaram os nódulos como fibroadenoma. A paciente foi sujeita a 54 tratamentos de acupunctura, acompanhados da toma de fitoterapia e aconselhamento alimentar, sem recurso a qualquer outra medicação ou cirurgia. No final dos primeiros 48 tratamentos, o novo estudo ecográfico revelou a redução dos nódulos para 9mm e 7mm. Foram depois realizados mais 6 tratamentos com frequência mensal, após os quais a paciente obteve alta médica com redução total dos nódulos.
