“…In our experience, 33% of the patients have associated cardiorespiratory disease, but after surgery, morbidity in this group of patients is uncommon. Different studies have observed that cardiopulmonary disease may hinder tolerance for pneumoperitoneum [15]. We did not observe this complication in our patients.…”

“…23,24 The insufflation of the abdominal cavity with carbon dioxide, the increased intraperitoneal pressure, and the patients' positioning are well-known risks of laparoscopic surgery. 25,26 Although these risks may be higher in older patients, advanced anesthetic techniques combined with improved perioperative monitoring can reduce these risks to acceptable levels. 23 In conclusion, laparoscopic rectopexy for complete rectal prolapse appears to be safe and effective in elderly patients as well as in younger patients.…”

“…Various studies have indicated that cardiopulmonary diseases may reduce the tolerance for pneumoperitoneum, 46 which is required for a sufficient operative view. 47 This method was also reported to generate adverse pathophysiological changes, including hypercapnia, reduced venous return, increased peak airway pressure, decreased pulmonary compliance, 48,49 and elevated ALT levels, 50 all of which are potential dangers for the elderly.…”

A growing body of evidence has supported the benefits of laparoscopic splenectomy (LS) for hypersplenism due to liver cirrhosis. With the increased proportion of elderly persons worldwide, it is necessary to investigate the risks and benefits of LS in elderly liver cirrhotic patients.From September 2003 to March 2012, LS and open splenectomy (OS) were performed for 21 (Group 1) and 19 (Group 3) patients, respectively, all of whom were 65 years of age and older; in addition, 39 patients who were <65 years old were treated with LS and referred to as Group 2. Data (i.e., demographic characteristics and preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative information) were retrospectively collected. Between-group comparisons were performed for the above-mentioned data.Compared with the patients in Group 3, the patients in Group 1 required longer operative times, fewer transfusions, less intensive care, a shorter postoperative course, and a shorter time to the first oral intake, and they had less blood loss and fewer postoperative short-term complications. During the follow-up period, compared with the preoperative status, significant changes in hemoglobin, leukocyte, platelet, and albumin levels were observed in all groups, whereas changes in the total BILirubin (BIL), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels were inconspicuous.Patients >65 years of age with hypersplenism caused by liver cirrhosis can safely undergo LS.
