Platelet Count and Mean Platelet Volume in the Prediction of Colorectal Cancer in Patients Presented with Emergency Ileus

Abstract

AIM: We aimed to investigate whether there is a role of platelet number and mean platelet volume in the prediction of colorectal cancer in emergency ileus patients. METHODS: In this retrospective study, ileus cases undergone urgent laparotomy were split into two groups as: Group 1 (G1) included colorectal cancer patients diagnosed with intra operative fi ndings and Group 2 (G2) included patients without cancer. Platelet count and mean platelet volume values were compared between two groups. RESULTS: Distribution of female/male patients between groups were homogeneus (p: 0.724), however mean age of colorectal cancer cases were higher (p: 0.008). Mean platelet volume values and platelet count were higher in cases with colorectal cancer (p: 0.040 and p: 0.004, respectively). Mean platelet volume had 63.3 % sensitivity and 56.5 % specifi ty, and platelet count had 63.3 % sensitivity and 62.9 % specifi ty in prediction of colorectal cancer amongst emergency ileus cases. CONCLUSION: Higher platelet count and mean platelet volume values may predict colorectal cancer in cases with acute abdomen diagnosed with ileus.
