Abstract:
Objective To investigating the application of serum carbohydrate antigen 199(CA199) level increase in the patients with different characters of obstructive jaundice .Methods 21 patients with benign obstructive jaundice (benign group) and 24 pa‐tients with malignant obstructive jaundice (malignant group) were selected .The CA199 level in these two groups was higher than the reference value .Serum CA199 level was all higher than average value .The changes of serum CA199 level and direct bilirubin (DBIL) before and after treatment were dynamically monitored and their correlation was analyzed .Results There was no statisti‐cally significant difference in serum CA199 and DBIL levels before treatment between the benign group and the malignant group (P> 0 .05) .The serum CA199 and DBIL levels after treatment in the benign group were obviously decreased compared with before treatment ,the difference was statistically significant (P< 0 .05) ,however ,which in the malignant group had no statistical difference between before and after treatment (P > 0 .05) .Conclusion CA199 is not a marker of very high tumor specificity ,and could not serve as the sole marker for judging benign and malignant diseases .Dynamically monitoring the change of serum CA199 before and after treatment and its correlation with DBIL is conducive to differentiate between benign with malignant diseases .
