Overview

Observational analysis found 30.1% mortality in frail elderly VC-PFF patients, suggesting complications need individualized care.

Key Points

  • One-year mortality reached 30.1% among VC-PFF patients, indicating a serious health risk for this population.
  • Key factors linked to increased mortality included older age, frailty, cognitive impairment, and higher comorbidity scores.
  • This prospective multicenter observational study involved 262 patients treated across 59 hospitals in Spain from 2021 to 2023.
  • Findings highlight the importance of tailored treatment strategies and early postoperative care to improve outcomes.
