Urine carcinoembryonic antigen determination in urinary bladder bilharziasis predicts carcinoma in patients with premalignant lesions: observation of 43 cases in Egypt.
Both urinary bilharziasis and urothelial neoplasia are associated with increased production of tissue carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA). Urine and serum CEA were determined in 43 patients with urinary bladder carcinoma including 22 post bilharzial and 21 non-biharzial cases, in addition to 10 normal control cases. A significant increase was detected in both urine and serum CEA levels with bladder ...
متن کاملCarcinoembryonic antigen in the urine of patients with urothelial carcinoma.
Increased amounts of carcinoembryonic antigen (C.E.A.) or C.E.A.-like material are found in the urine of many patients with transitional cell carcinomas of the bladder, including those presumed to be at an early stage of development. It is suggested that measurement of urinary C.E.A. is of clinical diagnostic value in the detection and follow-up of urothelial carcinomas.

متن کاملPremalignant Lesions of Urinary Bladder Mucosae
Premalignant lesions of mucosae urinary bladder are flat, noninvasive lesions of urothelium such as atypical hyperplasia/dysplasia and nonpapillary carcinoma in situ (CIS). The aim of this study was to identify association between premalignant lesions and subsequent invasive carcinoma. The study includes 60 patients with diagnosed noninvasive superficial and invasive bladder tumors. Our examina...
