INTRAOPERATIVE ASSESSMENT DURING SURGICAL RECONSTRUCTION OF RENAL ANDVISCERAL ARTERIES - OUR EXPERIENCE WITH INTRAOPERATIVE ANGIOSCOPY

A ngioscopy resulted in relevant findings, which in part, demanded immed iate intra-operative consequences. Angioscopy turned out to be a sensi tive way of surveillance, the findings were easy to interpret.
