Objective  To summarize contents of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) and understand it’s status and prospect in application of patients with hepatolithiasis. Methods  The descriptions of ERAS in recent years and applications in hepatolithiasis were reviewed. Results  The ERAS programme mainly included the preoperative managements, such as the education, nutrition management, and gastrointestinal tract management; the intraoperative managements, such as the minimally invasive surgery, reasonable choice of anesthesia, infusion volume management, and maintenance of body temperature, analgesia, and preventing postoperative nausea and vomiting medication selection; the postoperative early feeding, early exercise, early extubation, multimodal analgesia, T tube management, reasonable discharge standard and follow-up management. Although the ERAS was rarely reported in patients with hepatolithiasis, it had some advantages of promoting recovery and improving patient satisfaction, and it was still effective and safe. Conclusions  Application of ERAS concept in patients with hepatolithiasis has achieved precision management and individualized treatment during perioperative period. It could achieve a good short-term therapeutic effect and optimize medical management model. However, there are still some problems at the present stage in implementation and promotion of patients with hepatolithiasis, such as lacks of criteria and specifications, evidence-based medicine. It is needed to further strengthen communication and collaboration among multiple disciplinary teams so as to further improve ERAS programme and popularize it.
