Surgery in Geriatrics and Frailty is an open access, international journal publishing peer-reviewed original research (including prospective clinical trials, observational studies and experimental papers), reviews (including systematic reviews and meta-analyses), guideline proposals and guidelines, case reports, letters and editorials related to surgical and perioperative care in elderly and frail patients. As the global population ages, the demand for surgical interventions in geriatric and frail patients continues to rise. While surgical procedures can offer significant benefits for these patients, the risks associated with surgery in this population are also significant. Despite this, the standards of care for surgical interventions in geriatric and frail patients often fall short of what is necessary to ensure optimal outcomes. As comorbidityand frailty are stronger predictors of surgical outcome than age, we consider our journal to be relevant and pertinent within the scientific literature. Surgery in Geriatrics and Frailty is the journal of the Italian Society of Geriatric Surgery (Società Italiana di Chirurgia Geriatrica, SICG).
