Abstract

Objective: It has been suggested that mean platelet volume can be used as a marker of inflammation in some inflammatory diseases. This marker has not been investigated adequately in children with allergic disease. The aim of this study was to evaluate mean platelet volume in children with chronic spontaneous urticaria.
