Summary

We present a case of a 93-year-old patient with colorectal carcinoma indicated to right hemicolectomy. Shortly before planned surgery patient’s condition was complicated by pulmonary embolism, deterioration and protracted bleeding from the tumor. After careful internal and preoperative preparation patient underwent right hemicolectomy with uncomplicated course of hospitalization and transferred back to internal department to internal, rehabilitation and nutritional care. Thanks to intensive perioperative care and despite the patient's high age, the patient's quality of life has not decreased in any way and enjoys good health.
