Abstract
In the largest study, involving 1768 patients aged >= 75 years who underwent LPD (248, 14.0%) or OPD (520, 86.0%), Chapman et al. [[20]] reported better outcomes in LPD vs. Tan et al. [[18]] retrospectively collected data from the three defined groups: LPD aged < 70 years (group I, 84 patients), LPD aged >= 70 years (group II, 56 patients) and OPD aged >= 70 years (group III, 28 patients). Readmission rate in hospital after surgery was similar in elderly patients comparing LPD with OPD; also, no significant differences were noted for readmission rate in elderly vs. non-elderly LPD patients. The complete resection (R0) rate was similar in elderly patients from LPD group compared to OPD; moreover, no difference was found when the complete resection rate was compared in elderly vs. non-elderly patients with LPD.
