Preoperative serum levels of CA 72-4, CEA, CA 19-9, and alpha-fetoprotein in patients with gastric cancer.
INTRODUCTION The clinical importance of preoperative serum levels of CA 72-4, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), CA 19-9, and alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) was prospectively evaluated in 44 patients with gastric cancer. METHOD The serum tumor marker levels were determined by commercial radioimmunoassay kits. Positivity for CA 72-4 (>4 U/mL), CEA (>5 ng/mL), CA 19-9 (>37 U/mL), and AFP (>10 ng/mL) were...
متن کاملTumor markers carbohydrate antigens CA 19-9 and CA-50 and carcinoembryonic antigen in pancreatic cancer and benign diseases of the pancreatobiliary tract.
Sera from patients with diseases in the pancreas, gallbladder, and bile duct were analyzed for the tumor markers CA 19-9, CA-50, and carcinoembryonic antigen. In particular CA 19-9 and CA-50 appear to be valuable in differentiating malignant from benign disease in these organs. Our sample of 72 patients with pancreatic cancer also indicates that CA 19-9 and CA-50 complement each other in 21% of...

متن کاملSpontaneously 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...
