About

Dr. V. M. Nekoval is a dedicated researcher in geriatric oncology, with a focused expertise in optimizing treatment strategies for elderly and senile patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). Recognizing the critical gap in consensus guidelines for this vulnerable population, Dr. Nekoval’s seminal 2022 work, “Geriatric approach to the treatment of senile patients with colorectal cancer,” has garnered 5 citations, establishing a foundational framework for personalized care. Their major contribution lies in advocating for a geriatric-centric approach that balances oncological efficacy with the unique physiological and functional limitations of senile patients, aiming to reduce the high incidence of early postoperative complications associated with radical surgery. By integrating comprehensive geriatric assessments into treatment planning, Dr. Nekoval’s research challenges conventional surgical paradigms, promoting less invasive interventions and tailored perioperative management. This work has significant implications for improving survival and quality of life in an aging population. Dr. Nekoval’s achievements underscore a commitment to advancing evidence-based, patient-centered oncology, making them a key voice in the evolving dialogue on geriatric surgical care.
