Abstract: Aging and frailty lead to increased susceptibility to stressors, decreased physiological reserves, poor tolerance to tumor treatments, and ultimately increased risk of adverse outcomes. The multimodal prehabilitation program, aiming at improving preoperative physical activity, nutrition, and psychological readiness for high-risk populations, offers numerous benefits for increasing resistance to surgical stress, promoting postoperative recovery, optimizing clinical outcomes, and enhancing the quality of life. Relying on high-quality evidence-based medical evidence and multidisciplinary cooperation, reasonably formulating multimodal prehabilitation program, determining intervention timing, assessing clinical outcome, and considering socio-economic cost-effectiveness to explore the gastrointestinal tumor prehabilitation strategy for the elderly that are consistent with Chinese characteristics are imperative.

Key words: gastrointestinal neoplasms, geriatrics, frailty, multimodal prehabilitation, enhanced recovery after surgery
