[Laparoscopic resection of the abdominal aortic aneurysm].
Some 500 aortoiliac aneurysms are mostly electively operated in the Czech Republic each year. Miniinvasive approaches already widely accepted in general surgery are gradually becoming more routine in vascular surgery as well. Better patient comfort hand in hand with reduced hospital stay represent the major advantages of these procedures. The authors present their initial experience with laparoscopic AAA resection with the use of their own modification of the transperitoneal-retroperitoneal approach. Ischemic preconditionning's techniques with regard to the expected prolonged aortic clamping time were used during surgery.
