This updated text aims to reflect growing worldwide experience with elderly patients and strategies that have evolved for the surgical care of these patients. There are new chapters on solid organ transplantation and nutritional support for surgery.
The thoroughly updated Second Edition of this definitive text reflects the growing worldwide experience with elderly patients and the innovative strategies that have evolved for surgical care of these patients. More than 70 experts present current approaches to management of surgical conditions in the elderly and offer guidelines on preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative care. The Second Edition features new chapters on solid organ transplantation and nutritional support for surgery and a comprehensive chapter on vascular surgery. Also included is a chapter on problems of the aging patient and the aging surgeon, coauthored by a surgeon noted for his lectures on timing of retirement. Laparoscopic surgery has been added to the endoscopy chapter, and neurotology has been added to the otology chapter. Other highlights of this edition include a completely rewritten chapter on the future of geriatric surgery and enlightening discussions of geriatric surgical care in Italy and the United Kingdom
