Abstract
Fifty cases of atrophic cholecystitis were treated mainly by regulation of the function of the spleen. Of them, 21 cases were cured, 18 markedly effective, and 7 effective. The total effective rate was 92.0%. By comparison of results of ultrasonography B performed before and after treatment, it was shown that both the longitudinal and transverse inner diameters of gallbladder cross section increased evidently, and the condition of atrophy was improved remarkably after treatment.
