Safety of Carotid Endarterectomy in 2,443 Elderly Patients: Lessons from Nonagenarians-Are We Pushing the Limit?
چکیده انگلیسی
Carotid endarterectomy is performed in nonagenarians, as a group, with greater rates of perioperative mortality and morbidity than in younger patients, including octogenarians. But nonagenarians have a greater rate of symptomatic and emergent presentations than younger patients, which may account for their increased mortality, morbidity, length of stay, and incurred charges. Asymptomatic nonagenarians have similar outcomes after carotid endarterectomy compared with younger patients, including octogenarians, with low rates of mortality and morbidity.
