Abstract: Globally, the incidence of pancreatic cancer is on a rise. Pancreatic cancer is characterized by difficulty in early diagnosis, frequent distant metastasis, low surgical resection rate, and high risk of postoperative recurrence. Better treatments need to be developed to prolong the prognosis. Studies have confirmed that inflammation is closely correlated with tumorigenesis, and inflammatory mediators play important roles on tumor microenvironment of pancreatic cancer and lead to poor prognosis. This article reviewed the progress on the correlation between peripheral blood inflammatory index and the prognosis of pancreatic cancer.
