Abstract

Introduction: The mean platelet volume (MPV) is one of several indicators of platelet activity. Recent studies have shown that MPV is increased in myocardial infarction, unstable angina, and stroke. Peripheral artery disease (PAD) manifests with the narrowing or obstruction of the abdominal aorta and arteries distal to the aortic bifurcation due to progressive atherosclerosis. The objective of this study is to investigate the MPV and platelet count in patients with PAD.
