Objective : This study reports a case of chronic Bartholin's cyst treated with Sosiho-tang and suggests a modifying method. Methods : We reviewed a 41-year-old female patient with fatigue accompanied by chronic Bartholin's cyst. Symptomatic changes were checked on every visit using SF-12 (Short-form-12 health survey) and VAS (Visual analogue scale). The 104^th provision in Shanghanlun was compared with diagnosis and process analysis. Results : The modified Sosiho-tang removed Scutellariae Radix and used Phlomidis Radix of the same weight. The exacerbation factors were characterized with excessive activity (大), Edema and swelling of the foot (滿), Feeling tired in morning (朝) in 104th provision. After 45 days modified Sosiho-tang and 15 days Sosiho-tang, SF-12 and VAS ameliorated. No adverse effects was observed to the last follow-up visit. Conclusions : Modified sisiho-tang and Sosiho-tang were effective to the patient. Clinical application of 104^th provision of Shanghanlun can consider excessive activity, edema, and morning fatigue.
