Tumor markers carcinoembryonic antigen, tissue polypeptide antigen, and carbohydrate antigen 19/9 in liver diseases.

The tumor markers carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), tissue polypeptide antigen (TPA), and carbohydrate antigen 19/9 (CA19/9) have been compared with regard to their sensitivity to liver diseases. All three markers have been found to be sensitive to liver diseases, but to a different degree: TPA rises the most; CEA the least. The sensitivities of TPA and CA19/9 are higher in a group of liver diseases than, for comparison, in a group of colorectal carcinomas.

The tumor markers CEA, TPA and CA 19-9 in gastric cancer.

In gastric cancer the tumor markers CEA, TPA and CA 19-9 display relatively low sensitivity, which in relation to a specificity of 90% lies between 20% and 25%. Compared with the simple ESR method, these sensitivities are not remarkably greater. But a combination of parameters based on discriminant analysis achieves distinctly greater sensitivities.

Comparison of the tumor markers CEA, TPA, and CA 19-9 in colorectal carcinoma.

In 103 patients with colorectal carcinoma carcinogenic antigen, 19-9 (CEA), tissue polypeptide (TPA) and carbohydrate antigen (CA 19-9) were measured in serum. The values determined in these patients and in a control group have been converted into specificity-sensitivity diagrams. Comparison of diagrams of the three markers showed that CEA has the greatest sensitivity in colorectal carcinoma. Different ways to enhance the sensitivity by combination of the markers have been tried. By combination, however, the sensitivity of the single markers is not essentially enhanced.

Reaction of the tumor markers CEA and TPA to a surgical trauma.

The level of the tumor marker tissue polypeptide Antigen (TPA) rises distinctly after a surgical trauma. The rise begins between 3 and 6 days after operation; the elevation lasts for more than 6 weeks. Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) shows no comparable reaction.

[Tissue concentration and effectiveness of ofloxacin in surgical patients].

Following a 400 mg preoperative oral dose, ofloxacin concentrations were measured preoperatively in serum and at the time of tissue removal in serum, gall bladder fluid, the gall bladder wall, liver tissue, muscle, fascia, subcutaneous fat and skin. Serum values were more or less constantly above 3 mg/l at all times. The highest intraoperative ofloxacin concentration was 11.85 mg/l in the gall bladder fluid. In the gall bladder wall, liver and muscle, concentrations were slightly higher than in the serum, whereas concentrations in the fascia, subcutaneous fat and skin were clearly lower than serum concentrations. Good activity was observed with regard to the MIC90 of the pathogens most commonly encountered in surgical wards.

A new look at pleoptics.

Sixty-four patients who did not respond adequately to passive conventional occlusion were treated with active pleoptic therapy, and followed with orthoptic therapy when fusion potential was demonstrated. Patients ranged in age from 4 to 17 years, and ranged in visual acuity from 20/30 to 20/100. Seventeen patients had some fusion prior to starting pleoptics. All 64 patients achieved an immediate post-therapy acuity of 20/30 or better; 25 were fusing and demonstrated some stereopsis. Twenty-seven patients were followed for a period of one to ten years, including the 25 patients who were fusing at completion of therapy. Twenty-four (88%) maintained visual acuity of 20/30 or better. All fused either normally or with ARC. Three patients, whose visual acuity dropped to 20/50, had no fusion. Only one patient who had fusion at the completion of therapy was unable to maintain it. We conclude, therefore, that pleoptics retains values in the treatment of amblyopic patients with steady and unsteady central fixation, in those situations where conventional occlusion in unsuccessful.

[Unilateral implantation of the ureter into the posterior urethra in boys. 5 cases (author's transl)].

The authors report five new cases of unilateral implantation of the ureter into the posterior urethra in boys. Study of these cases confirms the classical data, i.e.: --The chief presenting symptom is infection. There is no urinary incontinence. --The principle examinations useful in diagnosis are the I.V.P. and urethroscopy. --The ectopic termination is in most cases associated with a double ureter, arising from the upper pelvis. However, the ureter may be single (1/5). --In three cases out of five the upper kidney was dysplasic, necessitating partial nephrectomy. In two cases out of five the kidney corresponding to the ectopic ureter was functional, making possible conservatrice surgery with reimplantation of the pathological ureter into the bladder.
