    Retroperitoneal soft tissue sarcomas (RPS) comprise about 1% of adult malignancies, with high recurrence rates and variable survival outcomes.

  • 2

    Complete tumor resection is crucial for managing RPS, particularly for liposarcoma, which often requires extensive multivisceral resections.

  • 3

    Preoperative nutritional status in RPS patients is critical, with studies indicating malnutrition rates of 40-50% affecting postoperative outcomes.

  • 4

    The study aimed to assess preoperative nutritional and anemia status in RPS patients and explore changes throughout disease progression.

  • 5

    Hierarchical linear models were used to evaluate changes in nutritional parameters, revealing associations with surgical interventions and complications.
