Ageing and hematology: how to cope with the silver wave in hematology
Prof. em. Dominique Bron from the Institut Jules Bordet in Brussels provided a comprehensive summary of the EHA Specialized Working Group on ‘Ageing and Hematology’. The group deliberated on the challenges of managing hematological conditions in octogenarians and how to address the “silver wave” in hematology.
The session included discussions on clonal hematopoiesis in the oldest old, balancing effectiveness and tolerability in octogenarians with hematological malignancies, and the crucial role of the comprehensive geriatric assessment in shared decision-making for older patients.
