Background Laparoscopic distal gastrectomy is used widely in surgery for gastric cancer. Excess visceral fat can limit the ability to dissect the suprapancreatic region, potentially increasing the risk of local complications, particularly pancreatic fistula. This study evaluated perirenal fat thickness as a surrogate for visceral fat to see whether this was related to complications after laparoscopic distal gastrectomy. Methods Perirenal fat thickness was measured dorsal to the left kidney as an indicator of visceral fat in patients with gastric cancer who underwent laparoscopic distal gastrectomy. Patients were divided into two groups: those with and those without complications. The relationship between perirenal fat thickness and postoperative complications was evaluated. Results The optimal cut‐off value for predicting morbidity using adipose tissue thickness was 10·7 mm; a distance equal to or greater than this was considered a positive perirenal fat thickness sign (PTS). A positive PTS showed a significant correlation with visceral fat area. Multivariable analysis found that a positive PTS was an independent risk factor for complications (hazard ratio 4·42, 95 per cent c.i. 2·31 to 8·86; P |
