CA72-4 antigen levels in serum and peritoneal washing in gastric cancer: correlation with morphological aspects of neoplasia Níveis sérico e no lavado peritonial do antígeno CA 72-4 no câncer gástrico: correlação com aspectos morfológicos da neoplasia

BACKGROUND: Determining levels of tumor markers in peritoneal washing enables likelihood of peritoneal recurrence to be ascertained in patients with high marker levels, thereby allowing provision of more accurate adjuvant treatment and postoperative follow up. AIM: To analyze the relationship betwee...
