Carcinoembryonic Antigen Levels in Germ Cell Tumours

The International Journal of Biological Markers, 1989
Elevated serum carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) prior to specific treatment was noted in 3% (7/258) of assessable patients with testicular, extragonadal or ovarian germ cell tumours (GCT).

Short‐ and Long‐Term Outcomes of Subtotal Gastrectomy for Remnant Gastric Cancer: A Multicenter Study

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This multicenter study compared subtotal versus completion gastrectomy for remnant gastric cancer. Subtotal gastrectomy was associated with shorter operative time and significantly less postoperative weight loss, with no difference in long‐term survival, suggesting it as a feasible surgical option without compromising oncologic outcomes.

Impact of Two‐Team Surgery on Short‐ and Long‐Term Outcomes of Transanal Total Mesorectal Excision for Rectal Cancer

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This study investigated the impact of two‐team surgery on short‐ and long‐term outcomes of transanal total mesorectal excision for rectal cancer. Two‐team surgery has some advantages over one‐team surgery, such as shorter operation time, decreased estimated blood loss, increased number of lymph nodes dissected, and decreased positive distal margin ...

Perioperative and Oncological Outcomes of Colorectal Cancer Surgery in Obese Patients: A Multicenter Retrospective Study

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
The prognostic value of the log odds of positive lymph nodes (LODDS) across BMI categories was investigated in patients undergoing colorectal cancer resection. The exploratory evidence demonstrates that LODDS serves as a strong prognostic marker, and its adverse effect may be more pronounced in patients with higher BMI.

Prognostic Value of Psoas Major Muscle Volume in Assessing Sarcopenia in Elderly Patients With Rectal Cancer

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This study investigates the prognostic utility of a novel volumetric indicator—psoas volume index (PVI)—for assessing sarcopenia in elderly rectal cancer patients. Sarcopenia classified by our proposed PVI cut‐off values was associated with poor nutritional and inflammatory status, and patients with low PVI showed significantly worse long‐term outcomes.

Chromosomal Localization of the Carcinoembryonic Antigen Gene Family and Differential Expression in Various Tumors [PDF]

, 1988
Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is a glycoprotein which is important as a tumor marker for a number of human cancers. It is a member of a gene family comprising about 10 closely related genes.

Impact of Abdominoperineal Resection on Postoperative Male Sexual Function After Minimally Invasive Rectal Cancer Surgery: A Subgroup Analysis From the LANDMARC Study

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Abdominoperineal resection (APR) after minimally invasive rectal cancer surgery was associated with significantly higher rates of erectile and early ejaculatory dysfunction compared with anal‐sparing surgery. Although ejaculatory function showed partial recovery over time, erectile dysfunction persisted up to 12 months postoperatively.

Medullary Thyroid Cancer Discovered Through Elevated Carcinoembryonic Antigen Levels Post Colorectal Cancer Resection

Annals of Internal Medicine: Clinical Cases
Medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) is a rare malignancy accounting for approximately 5% of all thyroid cancers. Common predictors of aggressiveness of MTC include specific RET mutations and levels of calcitonin.
