Factors That Predict Postoperative Pulmonary Complications After Supracricoid Partial Laryngectomy

Abstract

Patients 60 years or older and patients with cricohyoidopexy are at high risk of having postoperative pulmonary complications after supracricoid partial laryngectomy.

Risk factors of postoperative pulmonary complications following elective craniotomy for patients with tumors of the brainstem or adjacent to the brainstem

“…In contrast to previous studies (1,9,10,16–18), the present study has shown that PPCs are not associated with age or surgery duration, however, this may be due to differences in sample size or other factors. Clinical history of previous craniotomy procedures for brainstem and adjacent brainstem tumors is usually considered a contraindication for subsequent elective craniotomies.…”

Effect of Aging on Long‐Term Functional Outcomes After Open Partial Laryngectomy

“…Interestingly, even in contemporary literature, same authors reported that age at the time of surgery is related to a higher rate of short‐term complications (ie, increased time for nasogastric tube and tracheostomy removal and higher rates of early post‐operative pulmonary complications) in patients aged 60 to 69 than in their younger counterpart 27 . In our cohort, older age at the time of surgery was associated with a higher rate of tracheostomy and/or gastrostomy dependence.…”

In light of this, it may be hypothesized that achieving good functional results after surgery may be harder in the elderly, however, elderly patients who complete rehabilitation reach equally good results as their younger peers.…”

Surgical morbidity and mortality in patients after microvascular reconstruction for head and neck cancer

“…With an increasing elderly and comorbid surgical population, it is important to identify which patients are at increased risk. In our previous report, patients 60 aged years or older were at high risk of having postoperative pulmonary complications after supracricoid partial laryngectomy . For oesophagectomy, one major study found that 30‐day mortality increased from 10.7% for patients between 65 and 69 years of age to more than 20% for those older than 80 years of age .…”
