Özet

Background: Relation of serum gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) levels with extent, severity, and complexity of coronary artery disease has not been adequately studied. Therefore, we evaluated the relationship between GGT levels and coronary complexity, severity and extent assessed by SYNTAX score and long-term adverse events.
