Total bilirubin level was measured and the patients were divided into two groups. All the patients included in the study were subjected to full routine investigations and standard coronary angiographic projections. Materials and Methods: 70 patients with STEMI who were undergoing primary PCI were included in the study. The aim of this study is to evaluate the relationship of serum bilirubin level with the severity and complexity of coronary artery disease (CAD) in the patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). In 2010, about 7 out of total 53 million deaths were due to ischemic heart disease.
