Özet

Objective: Inflammatory indices (IIs), such as the systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (MLR), and prognostic nutritional index (PNI) reflect the prognosis of several types of solid tumors, including laryngeal cancer. To the best of our knowledge, with the exception of NLR, the role of IIs in the prediction of pharyngocutaneous fistula (PCF) has not been investigated, and we aimed to do so in this study.
