Abstract: BMI less than or equal to 25 kg/m and total psoas cross-sectional area less than or equal to the 33rd percentile are prognostic determinants in patients with NSCLC requiring pneumonectomy.

“…Moreover, sarcopenia [7] and lower BMI [8,9] have been recognized to increase post-operative morbidity and/or mortality. A recent study by our group showed that pre-surgery BMI > 25 kg/m 2 impacts favorably long-term survival of patients who had undergone pneumonectomy for NSCLC, independently of stage [10]. This favorable influence of higher BMI is confirmed in obese patients who had undergone lobectomy for cancer [11].…”

“…This favorable influence of higher BMI is confirmed in obese patients who had undergone lobectomy for cancer [11]. Considering that weight loss (WL) significantly worsens survival of advanced NSCLC [12], the negative prognostic impact of lower BMI [10] could simply reflect the consequence of WL. Thus, for better understanding the impact of BMI on outcome, it should be useful to study, together with pre-surgery BMI, pre-disease BMI, in the idea that baseline reserves could by themselves impact survival.…”

“…Zhou et al found that sarcopenia in patients undergoing radical gastrectomy was an independent risk factor for postoperative complications (18). Hervochon et al demonstrated that BMI and total psoas area at the level of L3 were independent prognostic factors for patients undergoing pneumonectomy for NSCLC (29). Suzuki et al examined 90 consecutive patients undergoing lung resection for stage I NSCLC, and using L3MI to assess for sarcopenia, found that sarcopenia was an independent prognostic factor for survival as patient with a low muscle mass had a significant decrease in 5-year overall survival (20).…”
