Inflammatory Index as a Predictor for Endometrial Cancer: an Observational Study

Summary

It is a prospective observational trial. Primary goal is identification of an association between alteration of systemic inflammation indices, such as neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-t- lymphocyte ratio (PLR), lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (MRL) and patients risk classification according to European Guidelines. The population is represented by all women being admitted to the Gynecology Ward, through Emergency, who are affected by endometrial cancer. Participants will undergo surgery, and freely express their consent to participate in the study.
