Variety of symptoms and atypical clinical course of Crohn's disease (CD) often create the need for additional diagnostic procedures. In the described case of woman with CD, there was a suspicion of coexistence of ovarian cancer. This issue is particularly important in patients treated with immunosuppressants and biological agents. The discussion focused on the usefulness of CA125 (cancer antigen 125, mucin 16) serum level estimation in clinical practice and draws attention to the possible reasons for the increase of its value which is not associated to ovarian cancer.
克罗恩病(CD)症状多样且临床病程不典型,常常需要进行额外的诊断程序。在所描述的这位患有CD的女性病例中,怀疑同时存在卵巢癌。这个问题在接受免疫抑制剂和生物制剂治疗的患者中尤为重要。讨论聚焦于CA125(癌抗原125,粘蛋白16)血清水平评估在临床实践中的有用性,并提请注意其值升高但与卵巢癌无关的可能原因。
