Basal natural killer (NK) cell activity in peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs) of 29 patients with gynecologic malignancy and 10 healthy controls was performed using K 562 cell line. A significant decrease of NK cell activity was observed in patients with gynecologic malignancy (p = 0.003). The NK cell activity of patients with poorly differentiated tumor or with stage IV of disease was significantly reduced with respect to patients at any other lower grade or earlier stage. We conclude that in patients with gynecologic malignancies there is a decrease of basal NK cell activity of PBLs, which is more significant in cases of distant tumor dissemination or poorly differentiated tumor (p less than 0.001).
