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...

Zusammenfassung: | 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 Methods
We retrospectively analyzed data on 2329 patients who underwent curative surgery for RCC between 2000 and 2014 in a single institution. Patients were divided into normal ( |
