[COSA 80: Oncologic surgery in the elderly patients].

Introduction: Due to longer life expectancy, an increasing number of older people are at risk of developing cancer. Surgical resection of a non-metastatic and resectable digestive tumor remains the main therapeutic weapon. The objective of our study is to assess the possibility of curative oncological surgery in patients over 80years of age, to study its impact in terms of morbidity and mortality, and to look for risk factors for the occurrence of complications.

How to do robotic Ivor Lewis esophagectomy for lower third oesophageal cancer.

Transthoracic subtotal esophagectomy with two-field lymph node (mediastinal and abdominal) and monobloc posterior mediastinectomy is called Ivor Lewis esophagectomy. This intervention requires an abdominal and thoracic time that is carried out here entirely by robotic way. It is performed a reconstruction by gastroplasty with a manual esophago-gastric anastomosis also by robotic way.

Surgical treatment of digestive cancer in a well-defined elderly population.

Introduction: Digestive cancer is of concern because of its frequency and severity with an increasing older median age of onset. The purpose of this study was to describe in a well-defined population presenting with non-metastatic digestive cancer the frequency of surgical resection and outcomes according to age.

Patients And Methods: We analyzed 7760 patients with a non-metastatic digestive cancer, recorded in the Burgundy population-based digestive cancer registry between 2009 and 2017.
