Spontaneously Ruptured Giant Splenic Cyst with Elevated Serum Levels of CA 19-9, CA 125 and Carcinoembryonic Antigen
Splenic cyst is a relatively rare disease; however, the occurrence of complications associated with its rupture is even more rare. A 20-year-old female patient who had severe abdominal and left shoulder pain was admitted to our hospital. The patient's abdomen was hard and tender to the touch and she presented with a high fever. The patient's serum levels of the tumor markers carbohydrate antige...
متن کاملRheumatoid factor interference in the determination of carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA 19-9).
BACKGROUND Investigation of a 61-year-old Caucasian male suffering from fatigue and weight loss led to the finding of a carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA 19-9) concentration of 80 kU/L using an ADVIA Centaur analyser. Determination of CA 19-9 on Vidas, AxSYM and Architect i2000 systems gave normal results. His rheumatoid factor concentration was very high (900 kIU/L) and assay interference was susp...
متن کاملAssociation between carcinoembryonic antigen, carbohydrate antigen 19-9 and body mass index in colorectal cancer patients
Carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) have been well recognized as tumor markers for colorectal cancer. Previous studies suggested that obesity is inversely associated with the screening of CEA and CA19-9 levels and may reduce screening sensitivity. This study was conducted to evaluate the association of body mass index (BMI) with serum CEA and CA19-9 concentrati...
متن کاملDiagnostic value of carcinoembryonic antigen and carcinoma antigen 19-9 for colorectal carcinoma.
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic efficiency of colorectal carcinoma (CRC) with the tumor markers Carcinoembryonic Antigen (CEA) and Carbohydrate Antigen 19-9 (CA 19-9), in addition to investigating whether CA 19-9 can be used to screen the disease process in patients with CRC who had no elevation of CEA levels. METHODS Serum levels of CEA and CA 19-9 were mea...
متن کاملComparative effectiveness of the tumour diagnostics, CA 19-9, CA 125 and carcinoembryonic antigen in patients with diseases of the digestive system.
Serum concentrations of CA 19-9, CA 125 and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) in 145 patients with gastrointestinal carcinomas and 89 with non-neoplastic diseases were determined to compare the clinical usefulness of these tumour markers. Significantly fewer positive cases were obtained with serum CA 19-9 (9%) and CA 125 (8%) tests than the CEA test (22%) (both p less than 0.05) in patients with b...
