The perioperative outcomes of gastric cancer surgery in octogenarians

Abstract

Aim: Gastric cancer is the fifth most common cancer in the world and the third most common cause of cancer related deaths. Its incidence is also increasing in elderly patients. A patient based, multidisciplinary treatment approach is required in the evaluation of elderly patients. Surgical resection is the curative method in the treatment of gastric cancer. We aimed to evaluate the early surgical outcomes, mortality and morbidity of patients aged 80 years and older who were operated for gastric cancer. Materials and Methods: Patients aged 80 years and older who underwent surgery for gastric adenocarcinoma between January 2015 and June 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Demographic, clinical, and histopathological parameters and postoperative outcomes were evaluated. Results: Twenty three patients aged 80 years and older were included in the study. The mean age was 81.95 ± 3.11 (Range 80 96) years. 8 were female and 15 were male. 5 patients were ASA I, 11 patients were ASA II, and 7 patients were ASA III. Three patients received neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Total gastrectomy was performed in 11 patients, distal gastrectomy in 5 patients, and proximal gastrectomy in 7 patients. The mean number of lymph nodes removed was 19.87±12.61. The mean hospital stay length was 9.34 ± 3.45 days. The mortality rate in the first ninety days of our study was 8.69% and morbidity was 13,04%. Conclusion: Octogenarians are a special patient group. The treatment plan should be individualized. If possible, all medically fit patients should undergo curative surgery.
