Aim: The aim of the present study was to investigate the correlation between fibrinogen level, platelet count and prognosis in patients with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). Material and Methods: Preoperative fibrinogen level and platelet count in 136 EOC patients and 146 patients with benign ovarian tumor, and their associations with clinicopathologic parameters and survival in EOC patients, were retrospectively analyzed. Results: The fibrinogen level in EOC was higher than that in benign patients (3.95 +/- 1.37 g/L versus 2.88 +/- 0.6 g/L, P < 0.001), and 36.0% (49/136) of EOC patients had hyperfibrinogenemia (fibrinogen >4.0 g/L). The platelet count in EOC was higher than that in benign patients (251.5 +/- 89.4 109/L versus 206.7 +/- 49.0 10(9)/L P < 0.001), and 7.4% (10/136) of EOC patients had thrombocytosis (platelet count >400 x 10(9)/L). Hyperfibrinogenemia was associated with International Federation of Gynecologists and Obstetricians (FIGO) stage, non-optimal cytoreduction and poor chemo-response, but not with histologic type and grade, CA-125 level, chemotherapy method, and age. EOC patients with advanced disease showed higher rate of elevated thrombocyte count than patients with early disease (30.7% versus 8.3%, P = 0.002). The rate of thrombocytosis was higher in patients with hyperfibrinogenemia than in those with normal fibrinogen (9/10 versus 1/10, P < 0.001). A significant correlation between platelet count and fibrinogen level was observed in EOC patients (P < 0.001). In multivariate analysis, overall survival was influenced by tumor stage (P < 0.001), chemotherapy with taxane (P < 0.001) and fibrinogen level (P = 0.004), and disease-free survival was only influenced by tumor stage (P < 0.001). Conclusion: Our findings suggest that hyperfibrinogenemia may be a predictor for poor chemo-response and have a potential role as independent prognostic factors in EOC patients.
