We aimed to evaluate the short-term outcome of colorectal resection in very elderly patients, aged 85 years or older. As the population ages, the number of elderly patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) is increasing in Japan. At this time, it is unclear whether or not laparoscopic colorectal resection is safe for this very elderly patient population. From January 2005 to November 2014, a total of 20 patients aged 85 years or older underwent laparoscopic colorectal resection at Osaka University Hospital. Pre- and postoperative clinical data and outcomes were collected retrospectively. There were no intraoperative or postoperative deaths. In 2 cases, the laparoscopic procedure was converted to open surgery. Postoperative complications occurred in 6 patients. Two patients developed an infection at the surgical site. Among the 4 patients who underwent low anterior resection (LAR), 2 experienced postoperative anastomotic leakage. Two other patients developed a lung infection and urinary tract infection, respectively. Laparoscopic colectomy for very elderly patients with CRC appears to involve tolerable risk. However, special caution is advisable for patients who may undergo LAR.

The Relationship

Abstract Aim: Sarcopenia is a progressive and generalized syndrome that can be linked to many causes such as cancers, and is caused by a quantitative and qualitative disorder (loss of muscle strength and / or physical performance) of skeletal muscle mass. Although sarcopenia has some hypothetical explanation in clinical practice, the mechanisms underlying this condition have not been clearly differentiated in patients with cancer. We aimed to investigate the relationship between irisin and FGF21 in detecting sarcopenia in colorectal cancer patients.Material and Method: Current prospectively study included non-metastatic newly diagnosed colorectal cancer patients. Patients were divided into two groups of 25 people, those with and without sarcopenia. Body composition measurements by examined by BIA. To measure the level of iris and FGF21 from patients, blood samples were taken into the biochemistry tube and their levels were measured. Results: The median age of the patients included in the study was 60 years (range: 21-81), 68 % were men. It was found that there was a significant relationship between sarcopenia and gender and BMI measurement. When Spearman correlation analysis was performed between skeletal muscle mass index and FGF21, irisin and CRP, there was a positive correlation between skeletal muscle mass index and irisin and FGF21, while there was a negative correlation between skeletal muscle mass index and CRP. [respectively: (r: 0.282, p: 0.048), (r: 0.564, p: <0.001) and (r: -0.360, p: 0.010). Similar results were found between hand grip strength and FGF21, irisin and CRP. [respectively: (r: 0.342, p: 0.015), (r: 0.290, p: 0.041) and (r: -0.476, p <0.001)]. When sarcopenia was treated as the dependent variable in the logistic regression analysis, and FGF21, irisin, CRP, gender and BMI were treated as the independent variables, irisin and CRP levels were determined as independent predictors. Conclusion: This study was revealed that there is a negative relationship between sarcopenia and irisin and FGF-21 in operated non-metastatic colorectal cancer patients and there may be a relationship between sarcopenia and inflammation. It suggest that these biomarkers may play a role in the pathophysiology of sarcopenia. However, our results need to be validated in different types of cancer and with more patients.
