Preoperative thrombocytosis (platelet count > 400 x 10(9)/L) at initial exploration for epithelial ovarian carcinoma is associated with decreased surgical cytoreducibility and poor survival. Platelets express androgen receptor (AR), which contains a polymorphic CAG trinucleotide repeat sequence of which the length inversely correlates with AR transactivation function. We hypothesized that androgen-mediated thrombocytosis promotes aggressive ovarian cancer biology.
