Cholelithiasis in advanced age
1989
Fifty seven patients over 65 affected with cholelithiasis underwent surgical procedures at II Patologia Chirurgica-University of Bari-Italy, from July 1987 to December 1988. Different risk factors were considered. The results, which reported a low incidence of morbidity and mortality, suggest the importance to adopt early surgery. Though 73.2% of patients had associated pathologies and 28.6% had two or more risk factors, only 5.3% of them had complications not strictly related to surgery.
