Peritoneal tuberculosis with elevated serum CA125 mimicking peritoneal carcinomatosis on F-18 FDG-PET/CT.
18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (F-18 FDG-PET) plays an important role in differentiating benign from malignant tumors. However, some false-positive findings, such as tuberculosis, may occur. We report a case referred for F-18 FDG whole-body PET computed tomography (PET/CT) scan owing to an elevated serum cancer antigen 125 (CA125). An FDG-PET/CT scan showed multiple hyperme...
متن کاملThe Correlation between Serum and Peritoneal Fluid CA125 Level in Women with Pelvic Endometriosis
Background Despite a high prevalence of endometriosis, there still exist many challenges in diagnosing the disease. This study aims to evaluate non-invasive and practical diagnostic methods by measuring serum and peritoneal fluid CA 125 levels in patients with endometriosis. A secondary aim is to determine the correlation between these markers with the stage of disease as well as the relationsh...
متن کاملInfluence of dialysis duration, peritoneal transport parameters, and gender on effluent CA125 concentration in patients on peritoneal dialysis.
INTRODUCTION Peritoneal effluent cancer antigen 125 (CA125) concentration is a marker of mesothelial cell mass in patients on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). Accordingly, we aimed to observe the effects of CAPD duration, sex, and peritoneal membrane efficacy on CA125 levels in peritoneal effluent. MATERIALS AND METHODS In 30 patients who were on CAPD for 6 months, concentrat...
متن کاملSerum CA125 concentration as a predictor of peritoneal dissemination of colorectal cancer in men and women
Peritoneal dissemination (PD) of cancer is difficult to diagnose. Previous reports have shown that carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125) is a sensitive marker of PD of gastric cancer. However, CA125 has not been evaluated as a marker of colorectal cancer (CRC), and its accuracy in men is controversial. The aim of this study was to compare the ability of CA125 and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) to pr...
متن کاملClinical Significance of CA125 Level with Clinicopathological Variables and Peritoneal Dissemination in Patients with Gastric Carcinoma
Recently, various tumors markers have been developed and it is known that the serum levels of markers such as carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA 19-9) and carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125) are elevated in patients with advanced gastric cancer [3]. However, the clinical usefulness of tumor markers has not been well defined from a diagnostic and therapeutic point of view...
