Article Synopsis
  • The study examines the clinical characteristics and functional changes in older women (65+) undergoing gynaeoncological surgery, focusing on postoperative outcomes over 12 months.
  • It highlights that while most participants remained independent post-surgery, there was a notable decline in function for some, particularly linked to factors like low mood.
  • Notably, cognitive impairment and frailty were found to affect baseline function but did not predict changes in functionality later on.
