Objectives: This study is designed to show the importance of C-reactive protein (CRP) to albumin ratio (CAR) in esophageal cancer (EC) prognosis.Methods: 39 patients with stage I-III EC, who were treated between 2012–2019 in Erzurum Regional Training and Research Hospital Oncology Clinic, are scanned retrospectively. The relationship between CAR and overall survival (OS) isevaluated. CAR cut-off value is calculated as 0.5; the patients are categorized and analyzed in two groups as
