Abstract

Background and objectives: Elderly patients with ovarian cancer (OC) commonly receive modified treatment due to the assumption of higher risk. The aim of this study is to evaluate postoperative complications in elderly patients undergoing surgery for OC.

Methods: Retrospective cohort study of patients with OC identified in the NSQIP database, (2013-2021). Younger patients included 40-69 years old, and elderly patients were ≥ 70 years old. Major complications included: pulmonary embolism, deep vein thrombosis, acute kidney injury, stroke, cardiac arrest, space surgical site infection, myocardial infarction, sepsis, septic shock, and return to the operating room.

Results: Of the 11,108 patients, 8214 (74%) were in the younger patient and 2894 (26%) in the elderly patient group. Elderly patients had higher rates of postoperative pneumonia (2.6% vs. 1.2%), myocardial infarction (1.4% vs. 0.3%), and major complications (3.5% vs. 2.0%), p < 0.0001 for all. Discharge to rehab was higher in elderly patients (3.1% vs. 0.5%, p < 0.001). On multivariate logistic regression, older age was associated with "major complications" (aOR 1.79, 95% CI 1.38-2.31, p < 0.0001).

Conclusions: In OC patients selected for surgery, elderly patients are at higher risk of Postoperative complications and are less likely to be discharged home. This should be considered when counseling patients pre-operatively and planning for peri-operative care and disposition.

老年卵巢癌术后并发症的NSQIP分析

背景与目的：老年卵巢癌（OC）患者由于风险较高，通常接受改良治疗。本研究的目的是评估老年OC手术患者的术后并发症。方法：回顾性队列研究在NSQIP数据库中发现的OC患者（2013-2021）。年轻患者年龄40-69岁，老年患者年龄≥70岁。主要并发症包括：肺栓塞、深静脉血栓形成、急性肾损伤、中风、心脏骤停、空间手术部位感染、心肌梗死、败血症、感染性休克、返回手术室等。结果：11108例患者中，年轻组8214例（74%），老年组2894例（26%）。老年患者术后肺炎（2.6% vs. 1.2%）、心肌梗死（1.4% vs. 0.3%）和主要并发症（3.5% vs. 2.0%）发生率较高。结论：在选择手术的OC患者中，老年患者发生术后并发症的风险较高，出院回家的可能性较小。在术前咨询患者和围手术期护理和处置计划时应考虑到这一点。
