Abstract

Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the possibility of using the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio, and platelet count and their dynamic changes during chemotherapy to predict suboptimal interval debulking surgery (IDS) in stage IIIC-IVA serous ovarian cancer (OC).
