Insulin is a growth factor for colorectal cancer. Visceral adipose tissue (VAT) is strongly associated with insulin levels, and insulin and visceral obesity have been associated in cohort studies with colorectal cancer. The aim of this investigation was to determine whether VAT is associated with recurrence of adenomatous polyps, the precursor to colorectal cancer.
