摘要

简介梅杰综合征（MS）是一种以眼睑痉挛和口颌肌张力障碍为特征的颅肌张力障碍性疾病。目前的治疗方法包括肉毒杆菌毒素疗法、口服药物和手术干预。在此，我们介绍一例经过针灸治疗后患者症状明显改善的病例：一位 72 岁的妇女因眼睑抽搐和下颌肌肉紧张来到我们的针灸诊所。她自述两年前因同样的症状被诊断为多发性硬化症，在过去的六个月里症状逐渐加重。针灸治疗 4 周后，患者的多发性硬化症症状明显改善：结论：针灸可能是多发性硬化症的一种挽救性治疗方法。

Acupuncture for Meige syndrome: A case report

Introduction

Meige syndrome (MS) is a cranial dystonia disorder characterized by blepharospasm and oromandibular dystonia. Current treatments include botulinum toxin therapy, oral medications, and surgical interventions. Here, we present a case that the patient's symptoms improved significantly after treatment with acupuncture.

Case description

A 72-year-old woman came to our acupuncture clinic with eyelid twitching and jaw muscle tension. She described being diagnosed with MS two years ago due to the same symptoms, and her symptoms gradually worsened over the past six months. After 4 weeks of acupuncture treatment, the patient's MS symptoms improved significantly.

Conclusion

Acupuncture may be a potentially salvage treatment option for MS.
