ABSTRACT

Background: the increase of longevity, together non-transmissible diseases, support the prediction of the occurrence of ictus as cause of death.
Objective: to characterize lomg-lived patients who have suffered from ictus.
Methods: it is a descriptive study which included 456, 90 year old or more patients, with the diagnosis of ictus admitted at the Hospital Gustavo Aldereguía Lima, from January 2005 to December 2014. The variables included were: age, sex, kind of ictus, toxic habits, personal pathologic antecedents and condition at discharge.
Results: 5,41 % of the total admissions due to ictus corresponded to long-lived patients. Female sex was more representative with 58,6 %. Ischemic etiology with 91,4 %. Arterial hypertension (76, 1 %) and ischemic cardiopathy (43, 9 %) were the most frequent risk factors. Hospital death rate was 35,7 %.
Conclusion: there is a progressive increase of the presentation of ictus in long-lived with higher prevalence in the female sex and a high hospital death rate.
