Anahtar Kelimeler


The increasing elderly population worldwide has led to a rise in the prevalence of both malignant and benign pathologies within this community. The number and scope of both diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopic procedures have also expanded in these elderly patients. Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) plays a significant role in the identification and determination of treatment modalities for various conditions, particularly malignancies, in the pancreatobiliary, gastrointestinal, and pulmonary lesions. However, there is a scarcity of literature pertaining to EUS in geriatric patients. When deciding on endoscopic procedures in this population, the potential benefits and risks should be carefully considered, with a paramount focus on patient safety.
