A retrospective analysis was made of 235 cases of colectomy, subdivided by age groups, with emphasis being laid on preoperative risk factors and postoperative complications. Lethality accounted for 2.5 per cent, with disorders of wound healing being the most common complications. Advanced age per se does not imply unfavourable prognosis.
