Abstract
The objective of the current study was to evaluate the effect of obesity on pretreatment quality of life (QoL) in gynecologic oncology patients. Before cancer treatment, obese patients with gynecologic malignancies have worse baseline quality of life compared with their normal-weight counterparts. Emerging models of quality of life–based cancer outcome measures will significantly affect populations with a high obesity burden.
