Healthcare trajectories following cancer surgery in older adults: insights from the French health data system
Cancer surgery for patients aged 75 years and older is predominantly associated with favourable outcomes and limited healthcare utilization. The use of trajectory analysis provides a comprehensive understanding of postoperative outcomes in this population, highlighting the impact of frailty, and may inform the development of new decision-making frameworks tailored to older adults with cancer.
