Postoperative Carcinoembryonic Antigen as a Complementary Tumor Marker of Carbohydrate Antigen 19-9 in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma
The role of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) in pancreatic cancer remains poorly understood. Therefore, this study aimed to determine whether CEA is complementary to carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) in prognosis prediction after pancreatic cancer curative resection. We retrospectively reviewed records of 144 stage II curatively resected pancreatic cancer patients with preoperative and postopera...
متن کاملCarbohydrate antigen 19-9 in saliva: possible preoperative marker of malignancy in parotid tumors.
OBJECTIVE Facial nerve preservation and oncological safety are crucial in surgery of parotid tumors. An unexpected histopathologic diagnosis of a malignant parotid tumor, however, may unfavorably require a second, more radical surgery. The aim of this study was to find out whether the assessment of serological tumor markers in parotid saliva might have some diagnostic significance in the preope...
متن کاملPrognostic and therapeutic significance of carbohydrate antigen 19-9 as tumor marker in patients with pancreatic cancer.
In pancreatic cancer (PC) accurate determination of treatment response by imaging often remains difficult. Various efforts have been undertaken to investigate new factors which may serve as more appropriate surrogate parameters of treatment efficacy. This review focuses on the role of carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA 19-9) as a prognostic tumor marker in PC and summarizes its contribution to monit...
متن کاملValidity of carcinoembryonic antigen and carbohydrate antigen 19-9 measurements in pancreatic cyst fluid with a serum-based immunoassay.
Imaging techniques, cytology, and biochemical analysis [including carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA 19-9) concentrations] of pancreatic cyst fluid obtained by endoscopic ultrasound-guided fineneedle aspiration are used to differentiate pancreatic cyst lesions, particularly those with malignant potential (1, 2 ). American College of Gastroenterology guidelines have...
متن کاملClinical value of serum cancer antigen 19-9 as a tumor screening marker among healthy individuals.
PURPOSE To investigate the clinical value of serum cancer antigen 19-9 (CA 19-9) as a tumor screening marker among healthy individuals. METHODS CA 19-9 levels were measured in 1921 healthy individuals and were compared to reference values. Analysis based on gender was also carried out. Individuals who had higher CA 19-9 values were advised to undergo imaging examinations and start follow-up. ...
