Objective:
To analyze surgical (including minimally invasive) treatment of advanced age patients with colon cancer and severe comorbidities.
Material And Methods:
Advanced age patients with colon cancer (≥60 years) were compared with younger ones. Concomitant diseases were detected in 94,4% of older patients and in 45,9% of patients in the control group (χ2=51,747; p<0,001).
Results:
Surgery time, intraoperative blood loss, length of hospital-stay, postoperative morbidity and mortality were similar.
Conclusion:
Severe comorbidities did not significantly affect surgical outcomes in these patients and did not increase postoperative morbidity and mortality.
