ABSTRACT

Objective To study the effect of auricular-plaster and meridian-pressing instrument on the prevention of gallstones recurrence after stone removeol.Methods 120 cases which were after endoscopic minimally cholecystolithotomy were selected and randomly divided into the control group and treatment group.All cases were observed for 3 years.Results This research altogether fell off 6 cases,including 2 cases in the control group and 4 cases in the treatment group.The treatment group's gallbladder wall (2.13 ± 0.36)mm was more thinner than the control group's(3.21 ± 0.40)mm,the treatment contract function was more strenghen than the control group,and the gallstone recurrence after stone removeol of the treatment was more smaller.Conclusion Aricular-plaster and meridian-pressing instrument can reduce inflammation of the gallbladder wall,enhance the gallbladder contraction function,and prevent the recurrence of gallstone.
