Abstract :
We read with great interest the manuscript written by Şahin et al. (1) February issue of Anatolian Journal of Cardiology. In that study they investigated the relation between gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT) level and presence of coronary collateral circulation in patients with chronic total occlusion (CTO). They found that GGT was an independent predictor of poor collateral development.
