MATERIAL and METHODS: As a retrospective single center study, we measured the systemic immune inflammation index (SII) and other systemic inflammatory parameters to estimate the morbidity and mortality of patients undergoing CEA. These parameters include inflammatory markers which are included in routine preoperative haematologic tests like complete blood count (CBC).

RESULTS: After the analysis of the collected datas from 72 patients, the results showed that inflammatory indices were significantly different in patients with different clinical courses.

CONCLUSION: Inflammatory parameters calculated from routine preoperative hematologic parameters proved to be important predictive parameters that can be used in morbidity/mortality estimation of patients scheduled for CEA. Keywords : Carotid artery, Stenosis, Cerebrovascular, Endarterectomy
