Abstract

Objectives: It has been shown that the neutrophil to lympho- cyte ratio (N/L ratio) is associated with cardiovascular events and mortality. In this study, we investigated the N/L ratio in patients with coronary artery ectasia (CAE). Study design: Fifty patients diagnosed with CAE using coro- nary angiography were included in the study (29 male, 21 fe- male; mean age, 51.1±7.1 years). The control group consisted of 28 patients who had normal coronary arteries as determined by coronary angiography (16 male, 12 female; mean age, 49.5±9.4 years). Basal characteristics were recorded. The number of ectatic segments was noted. Hematologic param- eters were measured and the N/L ratio was calculated. Conclusion: The N/L ratio is higher in patients with CAE. This ratio is related to presence and severity of CAE.
