Elevated serum CA 19-9 in association with Hashimoto thyroiditis.
Tumour markers are widely used in clinical practice. Elevated tumour markers can be observed in both malignant and benign conditions. Therefore, it is important for clinicians to be aware of the association of tumour markers with various disorders so that unnecessary investigations can be avoided without missing the malignant disorders. A 58-year-old woman who presented with weight loss and ele...
متن کاملHigh Serum Level of CA 19-9 not Always Related to the Pancreas: An Asymptomatic Case of Highly Elevated CA 19-9 Related to Lung Adenocarcinoma
Context CA 19-9 is widely used as tumor marker of pancreatic cancer. Extra-pancreatic tumors with increased serum levels of CA 19-9 are uncommon but should be taken into consideration in some cases. Case report We present an asymptomatic case of highly elevated serum CA 19-9 related to lung adenocarcinoma but not to pancreatic tumors. The serum CA 19-9 level returned to nearly normal after chem...
متن کاملCA 19-9 and CA 125 as potential predictors of disease recurrence in resectable lung adenocarcinoma
OBJECTIVES Among patients who underwent primary surgery for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), recurrent disease is frequent and cannot be accurately predicted solely from TNM stage and histopathological features. The aim of this study was to examine the association of tumor markers in pre-operative serum with recurrent disease. MATERIAL AND METHODS Blood samples were collected prior to lung...
متن کاملUnusually Elevated CA 19-9 in Choledocholithiasis
12 mg/ dl, Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) 3.2 ng/ ml and a CA 19-9 of 38310 U/ml. Ultrasonographic examination and computed tomography of the abdomen were of poor quality due to body habitus. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the abdomen showed intrahepatic biliary dilatation, a dilated common bile duct of 11mm and no pancreatic mass. Endoscopic ultrasound revealed cholelithiasis as well as a...
متن کاملSerum CA 19-9 and CEA Levels as a Prognostic Factor in Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma
PURPOSE To investigate the use of pretreatment carbohydrate antigen (CA) 19-9 and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) as prognostic factors to determine survival in pancreatic adenocarcinoma. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective review of the medical records of patients who were diagnosed with pancreatic adenocarcinoma and received surgery, chemoradiotherapy or chemotherapy was performed. Factors...
