Abstract
Objective: The aim of the study is to compare between Eosinophilic Count (EC), Mean Platelet Volume, (MPV), Neutrophil/Lymphocyte Neutrophil Ratio (NLR) and High Sensitive CRP (HS-CRP) level in patients with coronary artery ectasia versus patients with obstructive coronary artery disease.
Methods: 150 patients underwent diagnostic coronary angiography in cardiology departments of Mahalla cardiology center and Benha University hospitals, divided into three groups, 50 patients with Coronary Artery Ectasia (CAE), 50 patients with Obstructive Coronary Artery Disease (O-CAD) and 50 patients as a control group.
Results: All parameters were found to be significantly increased when comparing patients have CAE or O-CAD with the controls (P
