Background: Visceral obesity is the result of imbalance between energy intake and expenditure at the cellular level. The impact of body fat distribution on fatty acid metabolism and dyslipidemia is crucial for one understands of how overweight and obesity increase the risk for cardio-metabolic diseases. According to a journal review entitled "Fat Depots, Free Fatty Acids, and Dyslipidemia" published on Nutrients 2013, suggesting that vis-ceral fat depots within the abdomen and chest are correlated with metabolic abnormali-ties which include omental, mesenteric, hepatic, perirenal and pericardial fat. Patients with high perirenal fat surface should benefit from special attention to limit any additional potential risk.
