title: [OBESITY AND GYNECOLOGICAL CANCER].
abstract: An analysis of 329 patients with gynecological cancer, 120 of them were without obesity and 209 of them were with obesity. Only 36.47% of the cases were with normal weight. There is a trend of increasing obesity with age, with a peak in the age group 60-69 years. The distribution of patients according to BMI and stage of the disease there is a downward trend in the obesity with increasing stage. In both groups of patients (with and without obesity), the volume and type of surgery were carried out depending on the type of tumor process (localization) and stage of the disease. Radical histerectomy with pelvic lymph node dissection (with or without omentectomy) is carried out in 141 patients, of which only 6 were of normal weight, and 135 patients (95.7%) were of different stage of obesity. Total hysterectomy with pelvic lymph node dissection (with or without omentectomy) is carried out in 123 patients, of which only 2 were of normal weight, and 121 patients (98.4%) were of different stage of obesity. Our results show that the volume of surgery in patients with gynecological cancer does not depend the obesity and depend the stage of disease.
