Impact of visceral fat volume and fat density on biochemical outcome after radical prostatectomy and postoperative radiotherapy.

CONCLUSIONS: In both univariate and multivariate analysis, patients with both a larger VAT volume and density had a better biochemical outcome. The interaction between prostate cancer aggressiveness and visceral fat volume and density needs to be further evaluated to provide a better understanding of this disease.
