In order to evaluate the frequency of elevated circulating calcitonin in patients with bone metastasis plasma calcitonin level was measured in 32 patients with breast carcinoma with and without bone metastasis. Calcitonin was found in normal ranges in all patients without metastasis. In patients with bone metastasis, 4 had normal level, 2 were found with elevated calcitonin. Our results suggest that elevated calcitonin is related to the presence of bone metastasis but is not a constant finding in these patients.
为了评估骨转移患者循环降钙素升高的频率，对32例有或无骨转移的乳腺癌患者测定了血浆降钙素水平。所有无转移的患者降钙素水平均在正常范围内。在有骨转移的患者中，4例水平正常，2例降钙素升高。我们的结果表明，降钙素升高与骨转移的存在有关，但在这些患者中并非恒定现象。
