Kidney in TCM is as important as the kidneys in western medicine and deserves it's own entry. - anonymous

I agree. The TCM chracterizations of each of the Zang Fu organs are complex and require detailed treatments that can't be properly satisfied in the general Zang Fu theory article. If anything, I think the sections on the individual organs should link out to individual articles describing the role of each one within the system. - Shaggorama 09:06, 6 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
