    Abstract:
    A method of reconstructive operation on the vessels of the aorto-iliac zone not requiring forceps is proposed. A specially made balloon probe is used instead. It is introduced in the vessel lumen and stops the blood flow. The surgical interventions on the aorta and iliac arteries became much easier and less traumatic due to this innovation. The method was successfully used in 28 patients aged 39 to 72. Two thirds of them had different associated diseases. In the postoperative period the patients had stable hemodynamics and no pareses of the gastro-intestinal tract. The proposed method is especially promising in reconstructive operations on the vessels of the aorto-iliac zone with the retroperitoneal access.
