Diagnostic Performance of Neutrophil/Lymphocyte Ratio and Platelet/Lymphocyte Ratio in Endometrioma
Introduction:To evaluate whether neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet/lymphocyte ratio (PLR) have diagnostic value in endometrioma, which is a chronic inflammatory disease.Methods:A total of 187 patients who underwent surgery for adnexal mass, 97 patients diagnosed with endometrioma and 90...

NLR and PLR values obtained from preoperative complete blood count parameters were compared between the two groups.Results:There was no statistically significant difference between endometrioma and benign cyst groups regarding mean age (34.8±8.93 and 34.0±8.59 years, respectively, p=0.88). Fourteen point four percent (n=14) of the endometriomas were bilateral. The mean endometrioma size was 6.0±2.74 cm and 27.8% (n=27) of the endometriomas was found to be smaller than 5 cm. There was no significant difference between the endometrioma and the benign cyst group in terms of median NLR values (1.848 and 1.635, respectively, p=0.124).
