Background/Aim: Combination of perioperative chemotherapy with gastrectomy with D2 lymphadenectomy improves long-term survival in patients with gastric cancer. The aim of this study was to investigate the predictive value of preoperative levels of CRP, albumin, fibrinogen, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio and routinely used tumor markers (CEA, CA 19-9, CA 72-4) for lymph node involvement. Materials and Methods: This retrospective study was conducted in 136 patients who underwent surgery between 2007 and 2015. Bivariable and multivariable analyses were performed in order to identify important characteristics associated with the risk of lymph node involvement. Kaplan-Meier survival curves and log-rank tests were used to compare overall survival. Results: Lymph node involvement was significantly affected by preoperative fibrinogen (p=0.008) and albumin (p=0.023). Poor clinical condition, T and N staging and fibrinogen level above 3.5 g/l were significantly associated with worse overall survival. Conclusion: Preoperative fibrinogen and albumin levels are significantly associated with lymphoid metastases in patients with gastric cancer.
