title: [The safety of anesthesia of patients operated at the age over 80].
abstract: The authors present a retrospective evaluation of the safety of anaesthetizing patients who are above 80 years of age. The level of safety is raised by canal anaesthesia, complex treatment, proper monitoring and intensified perioperative care. In patients operated in emergency routine the coexistence of heart diseases and diabetes is a disadvantage. The risk is not rising parallel to the age, but is difficult to define and demands individual evaluation.
