With the retroperitoneal approach, the abdominal fat falls to the right and the peritoneum opening is avoided, reducing invasiveness, and avoiding many technical challenges related to hostile abdomens. Furthermore, the combination of the ERAS (Early Recovery After Surgery) protocol is known to improve the outcome of abdominal surgery especially in high-risk patients such as the obese population. [1] METHODS: Single-center retrospective cohort study enrolling all consecutive patients undergoing elective open retroperitoneal aneurysm repair associated with the ERAS protocol between January 2016 and December 2022. In the study cohort 53 obese (BMI ≥30) (Group 1) and 148 normal-weight patients (Group 2) were identified. Primary endpoints were post-operative complications, need for intensive care admission and length of hospital stay. Secondary endpoints were the perioperative mortality, overall survival and re-interventions rates at 1 year.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>No significant differences (Group 1 58.5% Vs Group 2 56.8%; p=0.889) were found between the two groups for the overall postoperative complications rates. The results were confirmed also stratifying the Clavien-Dindo classification for minor (Group 1 50.9% Vs Group 2 49.3%; p=.907) or major (Group 1 7.5% Vs Group 2 7.4%; p= .979) complications rates. Postoperative ICU admissions were significantly lower for Group 1 compared to Group 2 (50.9% Vs 30.4%; p<.05). Instead, the length of hospital stay (LOS) did not show differences between the two groups (5 [IQR: 4.5-7.5] Vs 5 [IQR: 4-7] days; p=.794). The mean follow-up period was 11.5 [IQR: 2-31] months for Group 1 and 13 [IQR: 1-30] months for Group 2 (p=.966). No significant differences emerged regarding mortality both at 30-days (Group 1 98.6% vs Group 2 100%; p=.395) and at 1 year (Group 1 94.3% vs Group 2 96.1%; p=.623). Finally, no re-interventions, not even on the abdominal wall, were necessary in the two groups during the study period.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>Obesity, by itself, should not negatively influence the therapeutic choice if a proper surgical strategy is adopted.</p>","PeriodicalId":17475,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Vascular Surgery","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2025-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143663744","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
