Objective: The linear relationship between density of hematomas on unenhanced computed tomography and hemoglobin levels were shown before. However, there are no studies about the effects of platelet count and functions on density values of hematomas. Our aim is to investigate the relationship between the density of hematomas measured on unenhanced Computed Tomography scans and platelet count and functions.

Materials and Methods: Seventy seven patients diagnosed with intracranial hematoma by unenhanced computed tomography scans between the ages of 10 and 89, who did not have anemia or coagulopathy, were included in the study. The density values of intracranial hematomas were measured on independent computed tomography diagnostic console. Patients were divided into two groups according to their hematoma densities as higher or lower than 60 Hounsfield Units. The relationship between the densities of hematomas and platelet count, mean platelet volume, platelet distribution width, hemoglobin, hematocrit, and red cell distribution width were investigated in all the patient population among the two groups.

Results: It has been found that the hematoma densities were only significantly correlated with mean platelet volume values among the blood parameters in the study population (p=0,007). Also, a significantly statistical correlation was found between mean platelet volume values of the two groups. (p=0,003).

Conclusion: Mean platelet volume is a significant factor that affects hematoma density value on computed tomography like hemoglobin. It is considered that this finding may also be a reason that explains the differences between hematoma densities of patients without anemia and coagulopathy.

Keywords: Intracranial Hematoma; Computed Tomography; Mean Platelet Volume.

Amaç: İntrakranial hematomların kontrastsız bilgisayarlı tomografi dansite değerleri ile hemoglobin seviyeleri arasındaki lineer ilişki daha önceden gösterilmiştir. Ancak, trombosit sayı ve fonksiyonlarının, hematomların dansite değerlerine olan etkisi ile ilgili yapılmış bir çalışma henüz yoktur. Amacımız kontrastsız bilgisayarlı tomografi görüntülerinde ölçülen hematom dansite değerlerinin, trombosit sayı ve fonksiyonları ile ilişkisini araştırmaktır. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çalışmaya, ilk 12 saat içerisinde kontrastsız bilgisayarlı tomografi tetkiki ile intrakranial hematom tanısı konulan, anemisi ve koagulopatisi olmayan, 10 ile 89 yaşları arasında 77 hasta dahil edildi. Bilgisayarlı tomografi bağımsız tanı konsolunda, intrakranial hematomların dansite değerleri ölçüldü. Hastalar hematom dansite değerlerine göre, dansitesi 60 Hounsfield birimin altında olanlar ve üstünde olanlar olmak üzere iki gruba ayrıldı. İntrakranial hematomların dansite değerleri ile trombosit sayısı, ortalama trombosit hacmi, trombosit dağılım genişliği, hemoglobin, hemotokrit, eritrosit dağılım genişliği değerleri arasındaki ilişki tüm hasta populasyonunda ve iki grup arasında karşılaştırılarak değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Tüm çalışma populasyonunda hematom dansiteleri ile tam kan parametreleri arasında sadece ortalama trombosit hacmi değerleri ile anlamlı korelasyon bulundu (p=0,007). Ayrıca iki grupta ortalama trombosit hacimleri arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık saptandı (p=0,003). Sonuç: Ortalama trombosit hacmi, hematomların bilgisayarlı tomografi dansite değerlerini hemoglobin değerleri gibi etkileyen önemli bir faktördür. Bu bulgunun anemisi ve koagulopatisi olmayan hastalarda izlenen hematom dansite farklılıklarını da açıklayan bir neden olabileceği düşünülmüştür
