Please let her: Doctor do it. Proper evaluation with x-rays are required to know when is the appropriate time. Also a special saw is used, one that won't damage her skin.

Do you mean: When to take off a plaster cast from the arm of a 75 year old woman who has an injury such as a fracture? This all depends upon the injury.
