Epidemiology

  • 1/3 of all surgeries performed in patients > 65 years of age

Indications

Contraindications

  • pregnancy not a contraindication
    • *general surgery as safe for pregnant women as it is for nonpregnant women[14]

Laboratory

Complications

Management

Notes

  • older surgeons may have a small advantage in operative mortality rates over younger colleagues[22]
  • female surgeons 50-59 years of age with lowest operative mortality rates[22]
    • no other differences in gender with operative mortality
  • internist involvement helps only as part of a multidisciplinary team[26]
