  • Title: [Surgical treatment of malignant colorectal neoplasms in the population over (our experience)].
    Author: Carolo F, Dagradi V, Piccinelli D, Lolli P, Delaini GG, Prati G.
    Journal: Chir Ital; 1987 Dec; 39(6):552-8. PubMed ID: 3446414.
    Abstract:
    The Authors examine a series of 95 operations in the Verona Surgical Clinic for colorectal carcinoma in patients aged above 75 and discuss the results obtained. The low mortality rate (2.95% for resections) and the acceptable incidence of morbidity confirm the validity of performing radical surgery for malignancies in very elderly patients, as is stressed in most of the relevant literature.
