Objectives: Metabolic syndrome (MetS), the constellation of obesity and related risk factors for cardiovascular disease, is an expanding epidemiologic concern in the United States and the developed world. However, the relationship between MetS and prostate cancer remains to be definitively assessed. We evaluated the association between obesity and MetS with prostate cancer pathology and surgical and functional outcomes.
Materials and methods: A total of 2,639 patients underwent robotic-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (RALP) for localized prostate cancer between March 2003 and July 2012. Of them, 186 patients met the criteria for MetS as defined by the presence of obesity (body mass index [BMI] >= 30 kg/m(2)) in conjunction with 2 or more of the following: hypertension (HTN), dyslipidemia (D), and diabetes (DM). Additionally, reference cohorts of (1) 663 nonobese men without I ITN, D. or DM; (2) 184 obese patients without HTN. D, or DM; and (3) 211 obese men with solitary risk factors were identified for comparison. Demographic, histopathologic, and perioperative clinical parameters were compared.
Results: In comparison with patients without MetS, patients with MetS had larger prostates (Odds Ratio (OR) = 1.609, 95% Confidence Interval (CI) = 1.04-2.49, P = 0.03), increased blood loss (OR = 1.592, 95% CI = 1.15-2.21, P = 0.01), and surgical complexity (OR = 4.940, 95% CI = 2.29-10.69, P < 0.001). There was no statistical difference observed between these groups in regard to complication rates, pathologic grade, stage, and postoperative continence or erectile function. With the exception of larger prostates found among men with MetS, men with obesity alone and obesity with 1 additional risk factor appeared similar to those with MetS.
Conclusions: Patients with MetS had similar perioperative, histopathologic, and functional outcomes compared with reference cohorts undergoing RALP. RALP is safe, feasible, and efficacious in men with MetS.
