Abstract
Objective
 Inflammation-related hemogram parameters have
 recently started to be defined as a useful marker in
 cancer patients. In this study, we aimed to comparison
 of hemogram parameters in papillary thyroid cancer
 (PTC) patients, well differentiated thyroid tumor
 of uncertain malignant potential (WDT-UMP) and
 follicular adenoma (FA).
 Material and Method
 The 287 patients’ data were analyzed in study. Study
 subjects were divided into 5 different groups. 1st
 group: control, 2nd group: FA, 3rd group: WDT-UMP,
 4th group: non-metastatic PTC, 5th group: metastatic
 PTC. We evaluated the preoperative blood tests.
 Results
 The average age was 50 (37-59). The mean TSH
 value was 1.2 (0.5-2.2) μIU/mL. The mean size of the
 lesion detected in the total thyroidectomy material was
 1.7 (1.0-3.0) cm. White blood cells (WBC), neutrophils
 and lymphocytes were lower in 3rd group than 4th
 group (p
