Abstract

A demographic ‘revolution’ has been taking place in the last decades: the world population, due to an increase in life expectancy, is ageing. Centenarians are no longer a rarity: they are 14 000 in Italy, and other countries, such as Japan, have more than 70 000 most of which are women.2 Data on skin surgery in the elderly have been reported only for patients up to 75 years old; however, no data are available for centenarians. We performed a retrospective study on the safety of dermatologic surgery in people older than 100 years.
