It is known that preoperative Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI) is useful in predicting prognosis in gastrointestinal diseases and that preoperative improvement of nutritional status improves prognosis. However, there have been few large-scale reports examining the prognostic value of PNI in soft tissue sarcomas. Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate whether the PNI can be useful for predicting overall survival in soft tissue sarcoma.
