[Geriatric surgery: a clinical and statistical contribution based on five years' experience (author's transl)].
The Authors offer a critical review of their own five-year experience in the field of geriatric surgery, with special attention to actual results obtained. From these data they conclude that the progressive improvement of said results, such as it emerges from the documentation, owes partly to the surgeon's greater ability to cope with geriatric problems in his domain, and partly to increased awareness of the resources of geriatric surgery by the lay population.
