SERUM CARCINOEMBRYONIC ANTIGEN LEVEL AS A PREDICTIVE MARKER FOR DISTANT METASTASIS IN NON-SMALL CELL LUNG CANCER

Aim: Elevated serum CEA (S-CEA) levels are sometimes attributable to the production of CEA by malignant cells, and in turn, the antigen itself can enhance the metastatic potential of malignant cells. We investigated the predictive role of S-CEA level for distant metastasis in nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods: Consecutive 116 NSCLC patients referred to our department were retrospectively investigated. S-CEA levels was compared according to age, gender, smoking habits, histological type, distant metastases and clinical disease stage in all patients. Results: There were no significant relationship between S-CEA level and age, gender and smoking habits. There was significant difference in S-CEA level between M0 and M1 patients (p
