Aim: The aim of the present study was to examine the predictive value of lipoprotein(a) (Lp[a]) levels for coronary collateral circulation (CCC) in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Method & methods: A total of 409 consecutive patients with AMI were enrolled for this study. Patients were divided into two groups according to rentrop grades assessed by coronary angiography: bad (n = 277) and good CCC group (n = 132). Result: Patients with bad CCC had a higher level of Lp(a) than that with good CCC (median Lp[a] 219.1 vs 122.0 mg/l). The area under the receiver-operating characteristic curves of Lp(a) in predicting bad CCC was 0.647 (95% CI: 0.592–0.702) with the cut-off value of 199.0 mg/l. Conclusion: Our data firstly suggested that Lp(a) might be a useful marker for CCC after AMI.
