Background: The primo vascular system (PVS) is an anatomical structure that is a
network of ducts with fluid flowing in them, which are called primo vessels and
correspond to acupuncture meridians, and primo nodes that correspond to
acupoints. The PVS' main function is considered to be the maintenance of
regenerative homeostasis in human and animal bodies. This system is distributed
throughout the bodies of normal animals and develops around and in cancer
tissues. This cancer-associated PVS may be a critical metastatic path besides the
blood and the lymph vessels. The author of this article proposes a hypothesis on
cancer treatment: Injecting anticancer drugs into acupoints according to the
pharmacopuncture method can be effective as a result of the flow channels of the
PVS. The author considers the acupoint Zusanli (ST 36) and the route of the primo
vessels starting from it. This specific PVS route runs along the perineurium of
the sciatic nerve, the pia mater, and the arachnoid mater of the spinal cord to
the brain. Thus, by injecting a suitable anticancer drug into ST 36, one can
deliver the drug into the brain to treat gliomas and other brain tumors. This new
drug-delivery method is just one of the new clinical applications that are
possible by combining acupuncture and using the PVS. Conclusions: Anticancer
drugs for glioma can be injected into the primo node at the acupoint ST 36 to
reach the cancer tissue through the PVS in the sciatic nerve, spine, and brain
that can avoid the blood-brain barrier.
