To discern the distinct impact of caudate lobe resection on patient outcomes, propensity score matching (PSM) was applied to control for variations across other relevant clinical parameters.

Compared to extremely old patients (≥90 years), the complete stone clearance was higher [odds ratio (OR) = 7.60, 95% CI: 1.89-30.57] and pneumonia was lower (OR = 0.16, 95% CI: 0.06-0.41) in general old patients (65 years ≤ age <90 years). Young (<65 years) patients had lower odds of mortality when compared to the age ≥65 years group (OR = 0.21, 95% CI: 0.17-0.27) and the age ≥80 years group (OR = 0.19, 95% CI: 0.15-0.24). In the comparison of 65-80 years versus ≥80 years, lower mortality (OR = 0.80, 95% CI: 0.65-0.98) was observed in the group of age range 65-80 years.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>Our findings suggested that extremely old patients with choledocholithiasis should cautiously choose ERCP, and postoperative complications should be monitored in extremely old patients.</p>","PeriodicalId":51205,"journal":{"name":"Turkish Journal of Gastroenterology","volume":" ","pages":"398-407"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-01-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12147330/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143015873","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
