Prostate Cancer Patients' Weight Linked to Tumor Size, Study Finds

Fat ass. Fat prostate. Fat chance of surviving your cancer.
The size of tumors in prostate cancer patients is directly linked to their weight, according to a new six-year study conducted by researchers at Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit...

"As the patients body mass index increased, the tumor volume increased synchronously," says Dr. Patil. "Based on our results, we believe having a larger percentage of tumor volume may be contributing to the aggressive nature of the disease in men with a higher BMI."
Kudos, fatsos.

Say, "Ah."
