CA19-9 in Mature Cystic Teratoma.
I investigated 250 patients with mature cystic teratoma (MCT) of ovary, using an enzyme immunoassay to determine the tissue source of their high serum levels of CA19-9. The mean preoperative serum CA19-9 level was 79.4 U/ml, and the mean postoperative level was far lower (27.4 U/ml). There were 41 patients positive for CA19-9. In the 31 with serum CA19-
