The fibrinogen to albumin ratio (FAR) is an important parameter that reflects the coagulation state, systemic inflammation, and nutritional status of a patient and plays an essential role in tumor progression. Here, we evaluate the prognostic significance of FAR in gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) patients that underwent radical surgery.
