Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
From November 2020 to February 2022 we have included 32 consecutive patients older than 80 undergoing emergency surgery due to colon diseases. We have collected and analysed all demographic, and operative data and then applied CR-POSSUM score and correlated with postoperative hospital stay and the onset of postoperative complications according to Clavien Dindo classification.
Postoperative factors were selectively evaluated based on the clinical scenario and different colic pathologies. There was no statistically significant differences, in terms of postoperative hospital stay, postoperative complications, reoperation rate and 30-day mortality. The number of cases of blood transfusions was significant, more numerous in case of intestinal perforation and bleeding cases. The value of Operative Severity Score in the Bowel Perforations, was significantly higher.
The use of a score to stratify the risk is a useful tool especially in elderly patients to undergo emergency surgery. The CR-POSSUM score was important for predicting morbidity in our study. Emergency manifestations of colon diseases in the elderly show higher morbidity and mortality rates.
