Abstract :Objective: In this study, we aimed to investigate the relationship between preoperative inflammatory markers, length of hospital stay, and mortality in patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(AAA); who underwent surgical repair. Methods: A total of 83 patients diagnosed with AAA were included in the study. A complete blood count insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(CBC); was performed on the first visit insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(pre-op 0-1 hour); in all patients. Non-ruptured cases insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(AAA); and ruptured cases insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(AAA-R); were compared. Results: 14.5% insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(n=12); of the patients died. Higher White blood cells and neutrophils were obtained in patients who died than in surviving patients insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(respectively, p=0.0002, p=0.001);. Higher WBC and NALP in AAA-R patients were determined. Conclusion: WBC and Neu\`s values were higher in AAA patients who died post-operatively and who were detected rupture pre-operatively but PLT and HB values were similar. Normal or near-normal HB and PLT values that will be seen in the first examination of AAA cases in the emergency department may mislead clinicians or cause them to display a more optimistic attitude.
