Background/Aims: The aim of this study was to determine the prognostic values of Foxp3+ Treg cells, CD4+ Tcells and CD8+ T cells in cancer cases of gallbladder, pancreas and liver. Methodology: This study included 20 patients with gallbladder cancer, 25 patients with pancreatic cancer and 8 patients with liver cancer. Foxp3, CD4 and CD8 were immunohistochemically evaluated and compared with histopathological and clinical prognostic parameters. Results: Foxp3, CD4 and CD8 expression levels were significantly higher in peritumoral areas than in intratumoral areas in patients with gallbladder, pancreas, liver cancers (p
