Results of abdominal reoperations in two groups of patients are analyzed. In group 1 (n=86) the repeated surgeries were performed with laparoscopic technologies through a mini-approach, in group 2 (n=87)--with conventional long laparotomy. It is demonstrated that mini-invasive surgical procedures are associated with shorter hospital stay, reduced rate of complications and lethal outcomes.
