Cutoff Values of Preoperative s-CEA Levels for Predicting Survivals after Curative Resection of Colorectal Cancer
Serum carcinoembryonic antigen (s-CEA) is used to detect recurrence and predict prognosis in colorectal cancer. However, the cutoff values of s-CEA for prognosis have not been determined. We therefore tried to determine the preoperative s-CEA levels predictive of survivals in colorectal cancer patients. We retrospectively analyzed the medical records of 989 patients who underwent curative resec...
متن کاملMonitoring of Serum Carcinoembryonic Antigen Levels after Curative Resection of Colon Cancer: Cutoff Values Determined according to Preoperative Levels Enhance the Diagnostic Accuracy for Recurrence.
OBJECTIVES Serum carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) has been widely used for postoperative surveillance for colorectal cancer. However, serum CEA has a poor diagnostic accuracy for detecting recurrence. We tested the hypothesis that determining cutoff values according to the preoperative serum CEA levels would enhance the diagnostic accuracy. METHODS Serum CEA was measured before and 1-6 months a...
متن کاملFollow-up after curative resection for colorectal cancer.
About one in three patients who have curative surgery for Colorectal Cancer will die as a result of recurrent disease. Follow up is performed to improve on this outcome by detecting recurrence at an earlier and potentially curable stage. In general, this will mean detecting recurrence in an asymptomatic person with resectable suture-line recurrence, or resectable liver and lung metastases. Ther...
متن کاملPost-pulmonary metastasectomy prognosis after curative resection for colorectal cancer
PURPOSE We aimed to compare disease-free survival after pulmonary metastasectomy to that after hepatic metastasectomy, and to identify prognostic factors after pulmonary metastasectomy. RESULTS Between 2005 and 2015, 129 patients underwent resection of isolated metachronous lung metastases from colorectal cancer. Three-year DFS after pulmonary metastasectomy was similar to that after hepatic ...
متن کاملNormalization of serum p53 antibody levels in patients after curative resection for colorectal cancer.
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to evaluate the significance of high serum p53 antibody (p53Ab) levels in relation to curative resection of colorectal cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS Between 2007 and 2010, 24 patients with colorectal cancer with higher-than-normal preoperative serum p53Ab, measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, were enrolled in this study. After curative resection, ...
