Abstract Background At present, much evidence shows that many cancers have a high risk of thrombosis. Several studies have shown the prognostic value of platelet-related parameters and coagulation indexes in prostate cancer (PCa). However, the association between platelet-related parameters, coagulation indexes and bone metastasis of Pca is unclear. Methods A total of 234 pathologically diagnosed patients with Pca were consecutively collected and stratified into the bone metastasis group and non-bone metastasis group according to the results of the bone scan. ROC curve analysis was used to explore the auxiliary predictive value of single and combined parameters for bone metastasis in Pca patients. Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses were used to determine the relationship between platelet-related parameters, coagulation indexes, and bone metastasis of Pca. Results Platelet count (PLT), fibrinogen (Fib), prostate-specific antigen (PSA), and D-dimer (DD) levels of the bone metastasis group were significantly higher than the non-bone metastasis group (P = 0.010, P
