Abstract Objective  The study aimed to investigate the prognostic value of preoperative hematocrit (HCT) on the survival of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) patients. Methods  Patients who underwent primary debulking surgery (PDS) in our institution, from January 2010 to December 2015, were enrolled. The preoperative HCT, hemoglobin (Hb), tumor stage, ascites volume, age, albumin, BMI, ASA score, diabetes and other factors were collected and analyzed to find the risk factors for poor prognosis of EOC patients using Cox regression. Survival analysis was conducted with Kaplan–Meier method and log-rank test. Results  192 patients met the inclusion criteria. HCT
