本病患者為44歲B型肝帶原者，為機場搬運工需輪值三班，此次因黃疸、腹脹、全身倦怠無力，食慾不振，尿液橘紅色而入院治療，西醫診斷為急性肝炎，初入院（99/8/2）之ALT／AST：1755／1511，經過西醫治療後，患者自覺療效有限（99／8／6之ALT／AST：1452／1113，TBI：15.10），故於8／9—8／23會診中醫治療。中醫診斷為濕熱型黃疸，採用清熱利濕為主，健脾順氣、芳香化濕為輔之治法，經過四次會診，患者病況及急性肝炎引起的各項症狀明顯改善，同時99／8／19之肝指數明顯下降（ALT：117，AST：120，TBI：9.10）。由於中醫治療療效顯著，故藉此案例探討中醫治療此病之病因、病機及方藥，以供各位同道治療此病之參考。
