Abstract Objective: To determine the relationship between postoperative intraperitoneal infection and sarcopenia in colorectal cancer and to establish a prediction model with high accuracy to discriminate patients with high risk of intraperitoneal infection. Methods: A prospective study was conducted of 383 colorectal cancer patients undergoing radical resection. The lumbar skeletal muscle index, preoperative grip strength and walking speed were preoperatively measured for sarcopenia diagnosis. Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to identify the potential factors for intraperitoneal infection. A prediction model consisting of independent risk factors
was constructed to quantify the individual risk of intraperitoneal infection after colorectal resection. Results: Out of 383 patients, 93 were diagnosed with sarcopenia in the present study, andintraperitoneal infectionoccurred in 44 patients. Multivariate logistic analysis showed that sarcopenia, tumor size and patient’s age were independent factors for intraperitoneal infection predication. The combined prediction model can accurately quantify the individual risk of intraperitoneal infection after colorectal cancer surgery (C-index 0.710). Conclusion: Sarcopenia is an independent risk factor for intraperitoneal infection after colorectal cancer surgery. Our prediction model is a simple and practical tool which can accurately quantify the individual risk of intraperitoneal infection and identify patients with high risk.
