  • Title: [Diagnostic significance of the tumor markers CEA, SCC and NSE in serum and bronchoalveolar lavage].
    Author: von Eiff M, Koch O, Appelhans N, Roos N, van de Loo J.
    Journal: Pneumologie; 1990 Feb; 44 Suppl 1():462-4. PubMed ID: 2164198.
    Abstract:
    The tumour markers CEA, SCC and NSE were measured in the serum and in bronchoalveolar lavage in 36 patients with malignant and 62 patients with benign pulmonary diseases. The sensitivity and specificity in diagnosing bronchial carcinomas could not be enhanced by determining the tumour markers by bronchoalveolar lavage instead of via the serum.
