Extremely elevated serum CA125 and CA19-9 levels following the rupture of ovarian endometrioma: A case report

Jinekolojide; serum CA125 ve CA19-9 düzeyleri başta over tümörleri olmak üzere benign ve malign durumlarda artış göstermektedir. Endometriosis benign bir durum olmasına rağmen CA125 ve CA19-9 düzeylerinde artış görülebilmektedir. Biz; bilateral ovaryan endometriomalı, abdominal kavitede kalın çikolata kist sıvısının izlendiği ve anormal yükseklikte CA125 ve CA19-9 plazma düzeylerinin saptandığı bir olgu sunmaktayız.

Ovaryan endometrioma rüptürünü takiben anormal düzeyde yükselen CA125 ve CA19-9 seviyeleri: Olgu sunumu

In gynecology, the serum CA125 and CA19-9 levels are elevated in patients with malignant and benign conditions especially in ovarian tumors. Although endometriosis is a benign condition, increased levels of the tumor markers CA125 and CA19-9 may be seen. We present a case demonstrated that abnormally high levels of plasma CA125 and CA19-9 encountered in bilaterally large ovarian endometrioma with rupture and the overflow of the thick "chocolate" cyst fluid throughout the abdominal cavity.
