After some important comments regarding the physiopathology of the immune system in elderly patients, the Authors focus on the possibilities currently made available by the studies on therapeutic procedures (TPN) and substances which influence the defence mechanisms in high risk geriatric surgery. Owing to the preliminary nature of studies and the initial stage of research on immunotherapy, the subjects requires further clinical verification and more extensive research. It is certain, however, that the subject is of considerable interest due to its potential future clinical applications.

Abstract
After some important comments regarding the physiopathology of the immune system in elderly patients, the Authors focus on the possibilities currently made available by the studies on therapeutic procedures (TPN) and substances which influence the defence mechanisms in high risk geriatric surgery. Owing to the preliminary nature of studies and the initial stage of research on immunotherapy, the subjects requires further clinical verification and more extensive research. It is certain, however, that the subject is of considerable interest due to its potential future clinical applications.
