In 14 dogs, the defect of the abdominal aorta was replaced by 5 to 8.5cm autogen ous peritoneal tube wich was composed of the peritoneum with the posterior sheath of the rectus muscle. The biophysical properties of the peritoneal tube was studied before and after replacement, and it showed that: (1) there was no significant difference between the arterial pressure of grafts and mormal abdominal aorts; (2) the tension strenghth was more than abdominal aorta; (3) the rate of patercy was 100 per cent. Therfore, the autogenous peritoneal tube might serve as a new type of material for replacement of vessels.
