| Core Tip |
Hematological parameters are important markers that can provide insight into the pathogenesis and progression of pancreatic cancer (PC). According to the literature, there are many hematological parameters in the pathogenesis of PC. However, this review article only summarized a few parameters, such as red blood cells, red cell distribution width, mean corpuscular volume, mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration, platelets, mean platelet volume, white blood cells and their types, such as neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils and basophils, and their ratios in PC. |
