摘要: SUMMARY Colorectal cancer is primarily a disease of the elderly. During past 15 years, median survival for metastatic colorectal has increased significantly. Older patients are heterogeneous population, and chronological age not reliable predictor tolerance treatment. There now significant body evidence that demonstrates equal efficacy tolerability treatment between older younger patients. Despite this, chemotherapy use declines with advancing age. Further research needed to enable optimal management this group
