Background hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), a highly prevalent and lethal cancer, it is the sixth most common cancer and the third leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Aim of the work to evaluate the role of inflammatory markers Neutrophil lymphocyte ratio and Platelet lymphocyte ratio (NLR &amp; PLR) as biomarkers for diagnosis of HCV related HCC. Patients and Methods this study was conducted in tropical medicine department, HCC clinic Ain-shams university hospitals. Our study included 174 candidates who were divided into three groups. Group A included 60 Patients with HCV-related HCC diagnosed according to American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD) guidelines; HCC patients were subdivided into three subgroups According to BCLC Results group A included 114 Patients with HCV-related HCC, which was subdivided into three subgroups according to BCLC. Group 1 included 30 patients underwent Radio-frequency ablation (RF), 76.67% of them were males while 23.33% were females with mean age 57.433. Group 2 included 41 patients underwent Trans-arterial chemo-embolization (TACE), 80.49% were males while 19.51% were females with mean age 60.268. Group 3 included 43 Patients with BCLC stage C and D For best supportive care, 76.74% were males while 23.26% were females with mean age 60.372. Male to female ratio in HCC patients was 3.56:1. Conclusion AFP remains the gold standard marker for diagnosis of HCC. NLR and PLR has no role as early prognostic markers for HCC.
