Abstract
Cancer has become a leading cause of death among patients with metabolic syndrome (MetS). The more components of MetS a patient has, the higher his risk of cancer. MetS is causally associated with colorectal, pancreatic, gallbladder, biliary, hepatocellular, gastric, esophageal, thyroid, breast, endometrial and renal cell cancers. MetS increases cancer mortality up to 2,4-fold. Intentional long-term weight loss reduces the excess cancer risk of obese MetS-patients. Both a low-risk lifestyle and cancer screening are effective and decrease the burden of cancer.
