Concentrations of CA-125 tumor marker in endometrial carcinoma.

Thirty-eight patients with irregular perimenopausal hemorrhage in whom carcinoma of the endometrium had been diagnosed by fractional curettage were included in the study. In all patients, the concentration of CA-125 tumor marker was determined preoperatively. Findings were compared to the depth of penetration of stage I adenocarcinoma into the endometrium. A statistically significantly higher CA-125 value was recorded when the tumor had penetrated more than one-third of the uterine wall. This method could be successfully combined with other techniques in therapy planning.

[Cervical pregnancy].

Cervical pregnancy is still a diagnostic and therapeutic problem. What is important in its treatment is to preserve women's fertility but very often more radical surgical interventions cannot be avoided. Two cases of cervical pregnancy are presented. In one case only the cervix was amputated, so that the women's fertility was preserved. In the other patient the uterus had to be removed because, after attempts to apply more conservative surgical treatment, intense bleeding was threatening the woman's life.
