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.
