Outcomes of Nonagenarian Patients in Vascular Surgery Service in a Tertiary Institution

The study highlights the growing need to manage vascular diseases in nonagenarians, emphasizing that age alone should not exclude patients from surgical interventions. By demonstrating acceptable short-term outcomes with careful patient selection, this research challenges the traditional bias against operating on the elderly. Clinicians should refine risk assessment and treatment plans, particularly when balancing surgical and conservative options. Comorbidities, rather than age, are key determinants of patient suitability, encouraging more individualized, evidence-based approaches in this expanding demographic.
