These stones are mainly made up of substances such as cholesterol, bilirubin, and calcium salts, which can cause complications such as biliary obstruction, cholecystitis, cholangitis, and pancreatitis. The causes of cholelithiasis are varied, including genetic factors, dietary habits, obesity, diabetes, rapid weight loss, multiple pregnancies, etc. This paper reviews the latest research results on the regulation of intestinal microbiota and related treatment of gallstone disease by single herbs and compound formulas at home and abroad in recent years, in order to provide a theoretical reference for the clinical practice of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of gallstone disease and the research and development of related new drugs.
