Key Words Prostate cancer; Obesity; Periprostatic fat
Core Tip Globally, prostate cancer (PCa) is highly prevalent. Although the prevalence of PCa is similar across different populations, major differences in PCa incidence and mortality are seen worldwide. A contribution of environmental factors, such as obesity, may play an important role. Most studies used body mass index as a factor of obesity. However, only visceral fat is metabolically active. In a study by van Roermund et al, periprostatic fat measured on a computed tomography scan correlated with tumor aggressiveness. In this review, we aim to give more insight into the relationship between periprostatic fat and Pca aggressiveness by reviewing the recent literature.
