To determine that childhood obesity is a risk factor for complicated community-acquired pneumonia in children 2 to 5 years of age. Material and methods: A retrospective and analytical case-control study was carried out, where 65 cases and 65 controls were evaluated in relation to the presence or absence of complications in community-acquired pneumonia. Results: Of the total number of patients with complicated CAP, 44.6% of them presented childhood obesity; and of the total number of patients without complicated CAP, 22.7% had childhood obesity. The relative risk of childhood obesity in relation to complicated CAP was 2.10 (p <0.05). Significance was found in a single intervening variable, which was exclusive breastfeeding. Conclusions: Obesity is a risk factor for complicated community-acquired pneumonia in children aged 2 to 5 years at the Belén de Trujillo hospital
