Özet

Purpose: Systemic inflammation and immune response are associated with tumors'prognosis. However, there is little information about inflammatory indexes in patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST). In this study, we aimed to determine the prognostic significance of inflammation indexes such as neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), prognostic nutritional index (PNI) and Glasgow prognostic score (GPS) in GIST patients.
