Abstract
Rationale: It has been reported that a high visceral fat mass is associated with increased postoperative infection in radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer. These severe complications result in a poor prognosis. However, the impact of visceral fat mass on prognosis remains unknown. In this study, we investigated the impact on visceral fat mass on short and long-term postoperative outcomes in radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer.
