Popis: | Concentrations of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and carbon hydrate antigen (CA) 50 were measured in pleural effusion and sera of 57 patients with bronchogenic carcinoma and in 73 patients in whom the effusion was the sequelae of tuberculosis pleurisy. In the group with bronchogenic carcinomas plan cellular was confirmed in 19, micro cellular in 17, macro cellular in 2 and adenocarcinoma in 18, while in 1 patient it was not possible to determine the histopathologic structure. The diagnosis of pleural disease was established upon the cytologic examination of the effusion and histopathologic examination of the pleural sample obtained by blind percutaneous needle biopsy or following pleuroscopy. CEA concentration in the sera of patients with bronchogenic carcinoma was significantly higher than in the patients with tuberculosis (p |
