title: [Influence of nutritive support on surgery outcomes in elderly patients with colon cancer].
abstract: The article presents the results of surgery outcomes in 127 elderly patients with colon cancer. The patients were divided into two groups: the main group (prospective, n = 52) and control group (retrospective, n = 75). The combined preoperative nutritive status assessment by BMI and a prognostic hypotrophy index were used. It included the optimization of nutritive support on all stages and an early tube removal, an enteral feeding during postoperative period. It was stated, that it significantly reduced the level of complications, period of intensive care unit stay on 2 days and a hospital stay on 4 days in main group. All the patients of the main group improved the quality of life during 7 days (EORTC QIQ CR29). Proposed nutritive support program allowed improvement of the quality of life and positive treatment outcomes in elderly patients with colon cancer.
