Key Points

  • The study aims to investigate the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and radiation-induced toxicities in patients with endometrial cancer.
  • Analysis of postoperative complications related to radiation therapy.
  • Comparison of toxicity levels between obese and non-obese patients.
  • Examination of the role of BMI in predicting radiation-related outcomes.
  • Obese patients may experience higher levels of radiation-induced toxicities.
  • The association between BMI and toxicity is not fully understood.
  • Further research is necessary to clarify how obesity impacts radiation side effects.

Abstract

Obesity is a well-established risk factor in the development of endometrial cancer. However, the precise link between body mass index BMI and postoperative radiation-related toxicity remains unclear. This study aims to clarify this association.
