High serum levels of both carcinoembryonic antigen and carbohydrate antigen 19-9 in a patient with sigmoid colon cancer without metastasis.
Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and carbohydrate antigen (CA)19-9 are well known as the most common tumor markers of colon cancer, and levels are used not only for preoperative assessment of extent and outcome of cancer, but also postoperative monitoring of recurrence. We encountered a patient with sigmoid colon cancer showing abnormally high serum levels of CEA (311.1 ng/ml) and CA19-9 (5731.2 ...
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 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 کاملSerum Levels of Carcinoembryonic Antigen and a Tumor-extracted Carcinoembryonic Antigen-related Antigen in Cancer Patients1
Levels of Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and a tumor-ex tracted CEA-related antigen (TEX) were determined in sera from patients with carcinomas of the breast, colon, lung, head and neck, and a number of miscellaneous categories. The purpose of this study was to compare the levels of each antigen at various stages of malignant disease. Competitive radioimmunoassays developed in our laboratory we...
