Abstract:
Ageing is an individual process. Chronological age does not reflect life expectancy or functional capacity. That is why, in geriatric oncology, the estimation of this capacity is a determining factor. An inter-disciplinary approach is necessary in order to coordinate the different players in the care and optimise the hospitalisation of elderly patients with multiple pathologies, all the more so when they are suffering from cancer.
