Abstract

Aims: This study aimed to study the predictive role of the neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR) in discriminating patients with or without orbital wall fracture in the acute period of blunt orbital trauma. Materials and Methods: Thirty-one patients with orbital wall fracture and 31 patients without orbital wall fracture were enrolled in this comparative retrospective study. Complete blood count measurements including NLR and PLR performed in the acute period were analysed in all patients, and results were compared between 2 groups. Results: Patients with orbital fracture had significantly higher NLR and PLR compared to patients without fracture (p=0.006, p=0.022). Conclusions: NLR and PLR performed at acute post-traumatic period may be used as a diagnostic clue to detect an orbital fracture.
