[Aorto-femoral bypass through mini-laparotomy compared with traditional surgery].
Results of 115 aorto-femoral bypasses through mini-laparotomy (ML-group) are compared with the results of 117 similar operations through standard laparotomy (SL-group). The patients of both group were similar by main characteristics, but the concomitant diseases (coronary heart disease, cerebrovascular disorders, chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases) were seen more often in ML-group. It is demonstrated that there were no significance differences between two groups in number and structure of postoperative complications. Less surgical trauma, short rehabilitation period, small risk of postoperative complications and lethality are the advantages of mini-laparotomic surgery.
