AB0 blood groups and rhesus factor expression as prognostic parameters in patients with epithelial ovarian cancer – a retrospective multi-centre study

AB0 blood groups and Rhesus factor expression have been associated with carcinogenesis, response to treatment and tumor progression in several malignancies. The aim of the present study was to test the hypothesis that AB0 blood groups and Rhesus factor expression are associated with clinical outcome in patients with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC).
