[Postoperative analgesia by auriculotherapy during laparoscopic cholecystectomy].
Auriculotherapy based on traditional Chinese cartography can be used for pain relief after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. It consists of palpating and pricking some well defined ear points corresponding to the surgical site. Relief was quickly obtained and compares favourably with minor parenteral analgesics.
