In all, 464 patients with a BMI less than 25 kg/m2, 335 patients with a BMI of 30 to 35 kg/m2, and 129 patients with a BMI higher than 35 kg/m2 were matched on the basis of age, sex, type of surgical procedure, histologic subtype, smoking, and pathologic stage. Alive patients were censored at the time of the last follow-up.
