Abstract

The aim of this work is to evaluate the possibility of implementing the concept of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) in perioperative treatment of an 80-year-old female patient with gastric stump carcinoma.Analysis of the clinical case and available literature data was performed. The concept of ERAS demonstrates its effectiveness not only in standard oncosurgical practice, but also can be successfully extended to difficult clinical situations including in elderly patients. However, personalized approach to development of a specific ERAS protocol is necessary taking into account surgery volume, concomitant pathology and individual patient characteristics.The use of individually selected points of the ERAS protocol taking into account oncological diagnosis, comorbidity, the type and technical features of the upcoming operation make the surgical stage of treatment not only safe, devoid of postoperative complications, but also more comfortable for the patient, positively affecting their quality of life. Оur experience can be successfully applied in real clinical practice.
