Postoperative complications associated with oral surgical procedures were studied in 79 elderly patients. Circulatory and respiratory complications were most often found, therefore the risk factors influencing these main complications in the aged were additionally analyzed.<BR>Basic systemic disease and surgical stress were statistically significant as influential risk factors in elderly patients following oral surgical procedures.<BR>The most frequent postsurgical complications in the aged were circulatory diseases and second most frequent were respiratory diseases. This order was the same as that of the basic systemic diseases in the aged, so this result suggested strong influence of basic systemic disease.<BR>Surgical stress, especially that due to extensive resection of malignant oral tumors, 8 hours or more long operating time, and 800 ml or more massive blood loss were the significant influential risk factors.
