  • Title: [Lung resection for carcinoma in old age--effect of cardiopulmonary risk factors on surgical indications].
    Author: Bieselt R, Eule H.
    Journal: Zentralbl Chir; 1983; 108(22):1422-7. PubMed ID: 6666418.
    Abstract:
    Advanced age will only play a limited role in determining the indication for lung resection in elderly patients. Our results demonstrate that the overall state of health and the stage of the tumour are the decisive criteria whether a lung resection can still be performed successfully or not.
