The predictive role of CA- 125 value in early stage endometrioid endometrial cancer

Objective: We aimed to evaluate the prognostic role of preoperative serum cancer antigen 125 (CA-125) in endometrioid endometrial for determining cut-off values clinicopathological factors.
 Study design: 161 patients were included study. The inclusion criteria histopathological confirmation and with CA-125 levels measured at most ten days before surgery. association between value variables analyzed. Receiver operating characteristic curve statistical tests factors used determine CA-125.
 Results: median level was 15.4 (3, 2-577) IU/L. These ranged from 14.30 18.67 IU/L (sensitivity 53%– 100%, specificity 30%–59%). analysis showed a significant relation stage pelvic-paraaortic lymph nodes metastasis. average life expectancy ≥15.4 102.8±5.9 months, whereas that
