With the acceleration of population aging,the proportion of elderly individuals has significantly increased,accompanied by a rise in life expectancy.However,the health status of the elderly continues to face numerous challenges.Elderly surgical patients encounter difficulties arising from physiological changes and the coexistence of multiple comorbidities.Modern medicine supports elderly patients through minimally invasive surgery,advancements in anesthesia and imaging technology,and comprehensive perioperative assessment and management.Nonetheless,to ensure surgical safety and effectiveness,a thorough evaluation of elderly patients is essential,along with the optimization of surgical strategies and a strong emphasis on interdisciplinary team collaboration and postoperative care.Societal and healthcare systems must work together to advance health policies and enhance medical services for the elderly,thereby achieving the goal of a healthy aging society and improving the quality of life for older adults.
