Impact of Obesity on Textbook Outcome Achievement in Minimally Invasive Colorectal Cancer Surgery

Textbook Outcome (TO) is a composite quality measure that integrates multiple perioperative endpoints to provide a comprehensive assessment of surgical quality. Although obesity has been associated with adverse outcomes after colorectal surgery, its impact on achieving TO remains unclear, particularly in the era of minimally invasive surgery. This study aimed to evaluate the association between body mass index (BMI) and TO achievement in patients undergoing minimally invasive colorectal cancer surgery.
