The Role of CA19-9 in Predicting Tumour Resectability in Carcinoma Head of Pancreas [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2016
Introduction: Carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA 19-9) is a tumour associated antigen. Blood levels may be elevated in benign as well as malignant conditions. Its sensitivity (70-90%) and specificity (68-91%) are inadequate for accurate diagnosis.

Medullary Thyroid Cancer Secreting Carbohydrate Antigen 19-9 (Ca 19-9): A Fatal Case Report [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2013
During follow-up for patients with medullary thyroid cancer (MTC), the levels of serum calcitonin and carcinoembryonic antigen are important, and the doubling time of these biomarkers significantly correlates with disease progression. Other antigens are present in tumor tissue and the sera of patients with MTC, but there are scarce published data on ...
