[Short- and Long-Term Surgical Outcomes for Patients with Colorectal Cancer Aged 80 Years or Older].

ABSTRACT

This study aimed to assess short-term and long-term outcomes and to identify the factors that affect outcomes for patients with colorectal cancer aged 80 years or older. Two hundred patients with colorectal cancer who were underwent resection of the primary tumor between January 2013 and December 2018 were enrolled. Short-term outcomes of elderly patients with poor PS and of those who take antithrombotic agents and of those who were underwent open surgery were poor. Long-term outcomes of elderly patients with high GNRI and of those who were underwent D3 lymph nodes dissection were better. Laparoscopic surgery with D3 lymph nodes dissection for elderly patients who were more than 80 years old should be useful to improve short- and long-term outcomes. GNRI might be a prognostic predictive factor for patients with colorectal cancer aged 80 years or older.
