Mean Platelet Volume as a Predictor for Restenosis After Carotid Angioplasty and Stenting
Abstract
Background and Purpose— Platelet aggregation plays a vital role in the development of in-stent restenosis (ISR) after carotid angioplasty and stenting (CAS). Mean platelet volume (MPV) has been suggested as an index of platelet reactivity. This study aimed to investigate the association between MPV and ISR in CAS patients. Methods— A total of 261 patients with CAS were enrolled. MPV was measured before CAS procedure. Digital subtraction...
