Association of Perioperative Skeletal Muscle Index Change With Outcome in Colorectal Cancer Patients
Patients with a high preoperative SMI that decline postoperatively have poor RFS and OS. Consistently low SMI also correlates with worse OS. Patients with low SMI but increased after resection are not an indicator of better prognosis. Routine measurement of postoperative, rather than preoperative, SMI is warranted. Patients with low SMI are at an increased risk for recurrence and death, especially within the first year after surgery.
