Excerpt
The presence of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) and tertiary lymphoid structures (TLSs) in tumor tissue has been related to prognosis in various malignancies.
1,2 Meanwhile, the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), as a systemic inflammation marker, has also been associated with prognosis in various malignancies.
3 However, there are few reports investigating the relationship between pulmonary metastases from various sarcomas and these biomarkers. Thus, we assessed whether TILs, TLSs, or NLR were correlated with the prognosis of patients with pulmonary metastases from uterine leiomyosarcoma. …
