  • Title: [Carcinoembryonic antigen as a control parameter in cryosurgical treatments of patients with rectal carcinoma].
    Author: Lamerz R, Feifel G, Kohl HJ, Lutz H.
    Journal: Fortschr Med; 1978 Nov 02; 96(41):2071-5. PubMed ID: 700593.
    Abstract:
    The monitoring power of CEA during cryotherapeutic management was investigated in a group of 39 patients with inoperable cancer of the rectum. By the results it is concluded that the determination of serial serum CEA levels during cryosurgery is not only a useful parameter of the results of local treatment but also a sensitive indicator of tumor metastases.
