Objective：To summarize the postoperative complications and the corresponding nursing countermeasures after minimally invasive gallbladder-preserving surgery for gallstone. Methods：Clinical data of 122 patients who underwent minimally invasive gall－bladder-preserving surgeries for gallstone in the department of hepatobiliary surgery of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow U－niversity between April 2009 and February 2011 were retrospectively analyzed. Results：Among the 122 patients，9 patients had post－operative complications，including bile leakage in 2 patients，infection of incision in 3 patients and gastrointestinal bleeding in 1 pa－tient. Gallstone recurrence occurred in the other 3 patients after 1 year follow-up. Conclusions：Causes of postoperative complications should be investigated and postoperative observation and nursing care should be strengthened to prevent the postoperative complica－tions after minimally invasive gallbladder-preserving surgery for gallstone.
