PurposeWe evaluated the morbidity of nephrectomy in patients older than age 80 years.Materials and MethodsBetween June 2002 and March 2011, 2,530 patients underwent surgery for renal tumor at 5 French academic centers. Of these patients 180 (7.1%) were age 80 years or older, including 22 (12%) and 158 (88%) who underwent partial and radical nephrectomy, respectively, and 47 (26.1%) who were treated with a laparoscopic approach.ResultsMean patient age was 82.3 years. Median Charlson score was 4. Mean preoperative glomerular filtration rate was 47 ml/minute. A total of 136 complications were recorded in 70 patients (38.8% of all patients). Of the patients 28 (15.5%), 25 (13.9%) and 17 (9.4%) experienced 1, 2 and 3 or more complications, respectively. According to the modified Clavien classification grade I, II, III, IV and V complications were observed in 7, 81, 19, 23 and 6 patients, respectively. The transfusion rate was 31.1% (56). On logistic regression analysis the parameters of Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status 2 to 4 (p = 0.035) and preoperative glomerular filtration rate less than 30 ml/minute (p = 0.03) were independent predictive factors of morbidity.ConclusionsMorbidity and mortality are significant in the octogenarian population. The risk of complications should be considered in decision making for patients with renal cell carcinoma older than age 80 years.
