The immediate and long-term results of 500 reconstructive operations on the aorticfemoral segment using a miniaccess were analyzed. 443 patients suffered from the obliterative atherosclerosis and 57 were operated on the infrarenal aortic aneurism. The size of the surgical access was 5-12 sm (418 through laparotomy, 82 through the retroperitoneal access). The access enlargement was necessary in 5.0% of cases. The mean time of the operation was 166.6±7.8 min (90-255 min). Time of the aortic clamping was 26.2±1.5 min by the aortic by-pass and 32.3±4.5 min by the aortic resection. The postoperative leathality rate was 1.6%, the morbidity rate was 20.0% (local vascular complications 7.2%; local non-vascular complications 7.2%, systemic complication 7.6%). 5-year by-pass patency was 91.9±2.8%, the limb was preserved in 93.6±2.4%.
