| Summary: | Late diagnostics of colon cancer along with high specific weight of the patients of elder age groups indicated the urgency of study of application of cytoreductive surgery in elderly and senile patients of with colorectal cancer. A comparative assessment of the results of cytoreductive operations (primary tumor resection) was made in two groups of patients with disseminated colon cancer (younger and older than 60 years old). It was stated, that the performance of palliative resection allowed them to obtain of encouraging remote results, provide more higher survival rates than in patients of young and mean age groups. The more frequent development of complications after cytoreductive operations was associated with decompensation of accompanying pathology in patients of elder age groups. These data confirmed the need of their adequate correction in preoperative period. The application of cytoreductive surgery significantly improved the quality of life of the patients of elder age groups with disseminated forms of colon cancer. |
