BACKGROUND: Absolute Neutrophil Count (ANC) recently a derived score composed of white blood cell and has been evaluated in a large number of the malignancy.

Histopathological findings well differentiated 40.7%, moderate differentiated 32.1%, and poorly differentiated 25.9%. This study showed that no significant differences between ANC and location of the tumor (p = 0.951), but ANC level was significant in histopathological findings (p = 0.0001).
