Can uterine myoma cause CA125 high

summary

Uterine leiomyoma, also known as uterine leiomyoma, is the most common benign tumor of female genitalia. My hysteromyoma has been cured for a long time. I often see CA125 written on the checklist. I don't know what it is. Now I will tell you about uterine fibroids can cause CA125 high?

Can uterine myoma cause CA125 high

First, CA125 is a glycoprotein that can be bound by monoclonal antibody OC125, which was detected from epithelial ovarian cancer antigen by bast in 1983. The level of CA125 in 95% of healthy adult women is less than or equal to 35u / ml. CA125, also known as cancer antigen 125, sounds scary on the face. If patients with adenomyosis really understand its detection value, they will not be over anxious and nervous.

Second, before and after conservative treatment, doctors should test CA125 for patients with adenomyosis. The purpose is to help diagnose and understand the severity of the disease, the total load of the lesion and the active degree of the lesion. At the same time, it is also an important index for curative effect observation. Adenomyosis itself is rarely cancerous, patients get CA125 increased test sheet don't be too anxious, patience until the next visit when consulting the doctor, I once for several CA125 test value of more than 2000 patients with adenomyosis surgery, resection of the uterus pathology is still benign.

Third: CA125 is characterized by high sensitivity, that is to say, as long as there is some wind and grass in our body, it may rise, but its specificity is poor. In addition to real gynecological and obstetric tumors, including ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer, endometrial cancer and cervical cancer, other parts of malignant tumors, such as pancreatic cancer, colon cancer, breast cancer and lung cancer, will also increase. What patients need to know most is that CA125 also increases in benign diseases, such as liver cirrhosis, acute pancreatitis, pelvic inflammatory disease and so on. In addition, the most common are patients with endometriosis and adenomyosis. In some special periods of women, such as menstruation, the first three months of pregnancy will also have CA125 increased.

matters needing attention

The treatment of hysteromyoma needs to be cautious. There are many patients who choose improper treatment methods to affect their life. After all, there are certain risks in surgical treatment. In addition, the fact that the recurrence rate after surgery is as high as 80% or more, I hope patients should think twice.
