BACKGROUND In this report, we present our experience with nonresective repair of abdominal aortic aneurysm in selected patients who were unsuited for other surgical approaches and would benefit from repair. METHODS Seven patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm underwent nonresective repair comprising aneurysm embolization followed by the creation of an axillary-femoral, femoral-femoral bypass with a polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) graft. RESULTS Between April 2006 and March 2009, seven patients (mean age: 85 years) underwent surgery. Of these, four (57%) are currently alive and healthy, with a mean follow-up of 15.7 months, the remaining three died. CONCLUSIONS Nonresection may be used as an alternative surgical treatment in certain high-risk patients.
