OBJECTIVES: We aimed to evaluate the association between body mass index (BMI), perioperative complications and outcomes in @entity1204 ( @entity1204 ) @entity1 at our institution. In addition, we performed a systematic review to compare our results to the literature. METHODS: This was a retrospective study of surgically managed @entity1204 @entity1 between January 2006 and January 2015. @entity1 characteristics, surgical complications and intra- and postoperative outcomes were evaluated across BMI groups; BMI <30kg/m(2), BMI >= 30kg/m(2) and BMI >= 40kg/m(2). The systematic review was performed according to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. RESULTS: In total, we identified 627 @entity1 of which 514 were included; 249 @entity1 had a BMI of <30kg/m(2), 195 @entity1 had a BMI of 30-39.9kg/m(2), and 70 @entity1 were morbidly @entity28 (BMI >= 40kg/m(2)). Obese @entity1 (BMI >= 30kg/m(2)) had significantly more @entity260 , including wound complications and antibiotics use, which was confirmed by the systematic review. The increase in complications mainly occurred in open surgery and morbidly @entity28 @entity1 were at highest risk. Obesity did not impact other outcomes including 30-day mortality. CONCLUSION: Obesity is associated with an increased risk of surgical morbidity in @entity1204 @entity1 , and is most profound in open surgery and among the morbidly @entity28 . Laparoscopic surgery may well prevent the majority of @entity260 in this group of @entity1 , and should therefore be the favoured approach.
