Abstract:Background
Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is the leading cause of death in gynecological cancers in developed countries. In recent years, there has been a growing need for economical and accurate pretreatment laboratory investigations to assess the prognosis of patients with advanced EOC (AEOC). We aimed to investigate the role of the hemoglobin-albumin-lymphocyte-platelet (HALP) index in suboptimal cytoreduction and oncological outcomes.
