A large mucinous cystic neoplasm of the pancreas was found that showed a remarkably high carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) level in cyst content. Staining for CEA was also detected in the lining epithelium. These findings indicate that columnar epithelial cells secrete CEA that accumulates in the cyst. We suggest that a CEA level determination of the cyst fluid, along with CEA immunoperoxidase staining on cell preparations, may prove useful in providing an accurate diagnosis of pancreatic cystic tumors.
发现一例胰腺大黏液性囊性肿瘤,其囊内容物中癌胚抗原(CEA)水平显著升高。在衬里上皮中也检测到CEA染色。这些发现表明柱状上皮细胞分泌CEA并在囊肿中积聚。我们认为,测定囊液中的CEA水平,以及对细胞制剂进行CEA免疫过氧化物酶染色,可能有助于准确诊断胰腺囊性肿瘤。
