Abstract

Objective: Serum CA 19.9 is commonly used as a tumor marker for diagnosis and followup of gastrointestinal malignancies. However, elevated levels can be found in various clinicalconditions.Methods: A total of 285 patients whose serum CA 19.9 level was ordered from variousoutpatient clinics other than oncology in a tertiary hospital setting and who had elevated CA19.9 (>34 U/mL) levels were included in the study group. Statistical analysis of marker levelsin relation to diagnosis of patients was performed.Results: Overall, 226 patients with benign disorders and 59 patients with malignant diseasehad elevated CA 19-9 levels. One hundred ten (39%) patients with increased CA 19-9 levelsdid not have any significant clinical condition associated with high CA 19-9 values. MedianCA 19-9 levels were significantly higher in patients with malignancies than in patients withbenign disorders (67.3 vs. 47.9; p

Özet

Amaç: Serum CA 19.9 değerleri gastrointestinal sistem kaynaklı malignitelerin tanısı ve takibinde sık kullanılan bir tümör belirtecidir ancak pek çok farklı klinik durumda serum CA 19.9 değerlerinden yükseklikler ortaya çıkabilir. Gereç ve Yöntem: Onkoloji kliniği haricindeki polikliniklerden serum CA 19.9 düzeyi incelenmiş ve üst referans limitin üzerinde CA 19.9 değeri saptanmış olan toplam 285 hasta çalışma grubuna dahil edildi. CA 19.9 düzeyleri ile hastaların tanıları arasındaki olası ilişkiler istatistiksel analiz yöntemleriyle geriye dönük olarak incelendi. Bulgular: Hastaların 226’sında benign hastalıklar artmış CA 19.9 düzeyleri ile ilişki bulunmuş iken 59 hastada malignite saptandı. Yüz on (%39) hastada ise artmış CA 19.9 değerleri herhangi bir klinik durum ile ilişkilendirilmedi. Medyan serum CA 19.9 değerleri malign hastalığı olanlarda, diğer bireylere göre anlamlı olarak yüksek saptandı (67.3 ve 47.9; p
