Breast cancer is one of the malignant tumors that threaten human health and life. With an ascending trend, the incidence of breast cancer has reached the top position in the list of female malignant tumors, seriously threatening the physical and mental health of a large number of women. Due to the rapid social and economic development, with life state change, the increase of competitive pressure has seriously affected the health of women both physically and mentally. In recent years, the primary treatments for breast cancer adopted by Western medicine include surgical operation, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, endocrine therapy and biological therapy. Currently, treatment of breast cancer has shifted to mainly focus on gene and medicine targeted therapies. However, since the effect of the above treatments has never been satisfactory, research on breast cancer treatment with traditional Chinese medicine has been widely conducted and has acquired remarkable results, which have been recognized by scholars home and abroad. The treatment combining traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine has had significant effect in terms of inhibiting tumor cell growth, after and improvement technique, complication, improving patients' quality of life, and prolonging life of the patients.
