Abstract: Lymphatic metastasis of malignant tumor is an important factor in the progression of tumor patients. The existing treatment effect is limited and the prognosis is poor, which seriously threatens the life and health of patients. Traditional Chinese medicine has an in-depth understanding of the shape, quality and function of triple energizer, and holds that triple energizer is a “membrane” four-way pipeline in shape and quality, which can reach the body with subtle distribution and discharge of dirt; in function, the general manager of the whole body is gasified, chemically, and defends against external evils. Recently, it has been found that the shape, quality and function of triple energizer are closely related to tumor lymphatic metastasis. The pathological form of triple energizer is the pathway of tumor metastasis, and its abnormal gasification function is the key to tumor metastasis. Combined with the triple energizer theory, it is considered that if the triple energizer qi machine is unobstructed and the triple energizer waterway is clear, the phlegm and blood stasis cannot be accumulated, the qi of Ying and Wei reaches the whole body, but the evil is difficult to remain, so it is put forward that “air regulator” and “Liquan channel” are the key to the prevention and treatment of lymphatic metastasis of malignant tumor. The abnormality of trifocal function is the core of tumor lymphatic metastasis. According to the triple energizer theory and its related treatment principles, it can guide the treatment of tumors, which is expected to be beneficial to the clinical treatment of tumors in traditional Chinese medicine.
