Results of comprehensive geriatric assessment effect survival in patients with malignant lymphoma

摘要

Purpose The prevalence of elderly and comorbid patients (pts) with malignant lymphoma (ML) will steadily increase in future. Elderly patients comprise a heterogeneous population. Comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) is an established diagnostic tool in geriatric medicine. However, the prognostic value in patients with ML is unclear. We sought to establish a relationship between results of CGA and survival time in patients with ML.
