Despite the progress in surgical and anaesthetic management, decreased renal function is still observed after abdominal infrarenal aortic surgery and remains an important problem in postoperative period. Although data regarding the efficacy of perioperative renal protection are conflicting, it is widely believed that renal protection before aortic cross-clamping is beneficial and therefore is commonly used. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of renal protection in patients undergoing elective infrarenal aortic surgery (1ARS).
