Abstract

Ovarian cancer is the leading cause of death among gynecologic cancers and currently the measurement of serum CA-125 is the most acceptable screening test. Here we are reporting the first case of a patient with elevated CA-125 as a consequence of tuberculosis vertebral osteomyelitis. Tuberculosis is a benign condition, which must be considered in the premenopausal female with elevated CA-125.

摘要

卵巢癌是妇科癌症中导致死亡的首要原因，目前血清CA - 125检测是最常用的筛查方法。在此，我们报告首例因结核性椎体骨髓炎导致CA - 125升高的病例。结核病是一种良性疾病，对于绝经前CA - 125升高的女性必须考虑到这一疾病。
