Prognostic Implication of Body Mass Index on Survival Outcomes in Surgically Treated Nonmetastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma: A Single-Institutional Retrospective Analysis of a Large Cohort

Purpose Obesity is a well-known risk factor for renal cell carcinoma (RCC). However, the prognostic role of obesity in RCC has not been clearly established thus far. We aim to assess the effect of preoperative body mass index (BMI) on survival outcomes in nonmetastatic RCC patients. Patients and Met...
