Elderly patients represent a unique surgical challenge because of the associated complex comorbidity and diminished cardiopulmonary reserve. Therefore, minimally invasive surgery in the elderly may have a larger impact compared to the younger population. The aim of this study was to prospectively evaluate the experience of laparoscopic surgery in patients >or=70 years of age in our unit.
