Abstract: Objective： To investigate the relationship of C-reactive protein(CRP) level of patients with head and neck tumor before operation and the infection after operation. Methods: The content of CRP, ABL and WBC in 177 patients with head and neck tumor preoperative 1day was determined. The data of C-reactive protein and infection after operation were analyzed by a statistical method. Results: Twentyone patients (11.9%) had infection after operation, whose CRP level was much higher than patients without infection (t=2.835，P＜0.01)．The infection rate of patients with an increased CRP level was significant higher than that with a normal CRP level　(χ2=6.18,P＜0.01). Moreover, the admission period was obviously prolonged (t=2.215，P＜0.05)．Conclusion: As the serum CRP is raised in patients with head and neck tumor before operation, the infection risk significantly increases after operation.

Key words: C-reactive protein, Infection, Head and neck neoplasms
