Introduction:
The study evaluated the effect of walking training on the physical training of people with a surgically treated abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) in a short-term observation.

Materials and methods:
In a group of 60 patients, divided randomly into two groups with different models of physiotherapy, blood count parameters, 6-minute walk test variables, spirometry variables and quadriceps torque of the lower limbs were measured before and after the operation.

Results:
The statistical analysis of the studied variables indicates a physical reduction in both groups after surgery. Only a few parameters, such as energy expenditure MET, forced vital capacity FVC, quadriceps torque of the right lower extremity, support the physiotherapy model, extended by march training.

Conclusions:
In patients with an abdominal aortic aneurysm, regardless of the type of physiotherapy carried out, there is a reduction in physical function after surgery. The results indicate the need to continue walking training after discharge from the hospital in the second stage of physiotherapy.
