| Core Tip |
The definition of elderly varies from 75 to 85 years of age and over. Therefore, we classified individuals into ages 75, 80, and 85 years and over. In addition, long-term functional performance in the elderly should consider not only prognosis but also life expectancy. Perioperative problems were discussed separately for preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative procedures. Regarding surgery, based on the latest findings, we discussed surgical indications compared with best supportive care, laparoscopic surgery, total gastrectomy, and the extent of lymph node dissection. |
