Preoperative Blood Neutrophil-To-Lymphocyte Ratio-Based Nomogram Predicts Lymph Node Metastasis in Patients of Resectable Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors

#1636

Introduction: Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio(NLR) is one of the systemic inflammation markers, which has prognostic values in many types of tumor. However, hardly no research has reported the relationship between NLR and pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors(panNETs).

Aim(s): To evaluate the predictive value of the preoperative blood NLR on the clinical outcomes in patients of resectable panNETs.

Materials and methods: 95 consecutive cases of panNETs registered between March 2009 and May 2016 underwent pancreatic surgery were included.
