The Role of Neutrophil-Lymphocytes Ratio in the Prognosis of CIN2+ Recurrence after Excisional Treatment.

It is well known that CIN2+ lesions are sustained by deregulation of the immune system caused by persistent HPV infection, which may lead to cervical cancer. Among the actors underlying dysregulation of immunity, lymphocytes are involved in the permission of persistent infection and for this reason, NRL could be a reliable and cost-effective biomarker in predicting the risk of recurrence, especially for high-grade cervical lesions.
