Table 5 Comparison of intraoperative complication between obese and non-obese patients by VFA/BMI.
| Parameter | VFA | p-value | BMI | p-value | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Patients (n=213) | VFA ≥100 cm2 (n=121) | VFA <100 cm2 (n=92) | Patients (n=213) | BM ≥28 kg/m2 (n=53) | BMI <28 kg/m2 (n=160) | |||
| Intraoperative complication | 0.811 | 0.740 | ||||||
| Yes, n (%) | 3 | 1 (0.8) | 2 (2.2) | 3 | 1 (1.9) | 2 (1.2) | ||
| No, n (%) | 210 | 120 (99.2) | 90 (97.8) | 210 | 52 (98.1) | 158 (98.8) | ||
| Data are presented as n. VFA – visceral fat area; BMI – body mass index. | ||||||||
