Epitelyal over tümörlerinde serum Ca 125 değerlerinin prognostik önemi

Amaç: Epitelyal över karsinomlarında önemli bir prognostik bilgi olan Serum Ca 125 değerleri tanıda, tedavide ve takipte kullanılabilen bir markerdir. Yaptığımız bu çalışmada seröz ya da müsinöz benign,borderline ve malign över tümörlü olgularda serum Ca 125 değerleri, tümör tipleri arasında bu değerler açısından fark olup olmadığı,borderline,malign tümörlerde prognostik parametre olarak anlamlılığı ve diğerprognostik parametrelerle ilişkisini araştırdık. Materyal ve Metod: 38'i malign, 15'i borderline ve 34'ü benign over tümörü tanısı almış olan toplam 87 olgunun HematoksilenEozin ile boyalı tüm kesitleri ışık mikroskobunda tekrar incelendi ve bu olguların serum Ca 125 değerleri karşılaştırıldı. Benign, borderline ve malign tümörlü olgularındaki serum Ca 125 değerleri karşılaştırılırken laboratuar referens değerlerine göre 35 U/ml üzerindeki değerler(+), altındaki değerler ise (-) kabul edildi. Bulgular: Malign olgularda Ca 125 değerleri ortalaması 1601,28 ± 1996,91, borderline olgularda 64,60 ± 57,30 ve benign olgularda 18,68 ±17,71 olup seröz tumor tipinde 965,78 ± 1744,41 iken müsinöz tümor tipinde 102,97 ± 241,14 'tür. Benign grubunda Ca 125 değeri 35 U/ml'denyüksek (+) olan olguların oranı, borderline ve malign grubundaki olguların oranlarından istatistiksel olarak ileri düzeyde anlamlı farklılık yaratacak şekilde düşüktür (p

Prognostic value of serum Ca 125 levels in ovarian epithelial tumors

Prognostic value of serum Ca 125 levels in ovarian epithelial tumors Objectives: As an importantprognostic indicator in epithelial ovarian tumors, serum Ca 125 is a marker which can be used at the diagnosis, treatment andfollow-up. In this study, we investigate the serum Ca 125 levels in either serous or mucinous benign, borderline and malignant ovarian tumors with the respect of their differences between the tumor types, their significance as a prognostic indicator in malignant tumors and relationship with the other prognostic factors. Material and Methods: All H+E slides of 38 malignant, 15 borderline and 34 benign (87 in total) ovarian tumors were re-evaluated at the light microscope and the results were compared with Ca 125 levels of those cases. For the evaluation of the serum Ca 125 levels in benign, borderline and malignant cases, levels above the 35 U/ml as a laboratory reference, were accepted aspositive and negative for the levels below it. Results: Mean Ca 125 levels were 1601.28±1996.91 in malignant, 64.60±57.30 in borderline and 18.68±17.71 in benign cases and as for the histologic types, they were 965.78±1744.41 and 102.97±241.14 for the serous and mucinous tumors, respectively. Percentage of the Ca 125 positive cases (i.e. higher than 35 U/ml) were lower than the percentages of borderline and malignant cases in statisticallyprofoundsignificance (p
