Comparative Analysis of Circulating Biomarkers for Patients Undergoing Resection of Colorectal Liver Metastases

Surgical tumor resection has evolved as a potentially curative therapy for patients with resectable colorectal liver metastases (CRLM). However, disease recurrence is common and the available preoperative stratification strategies are often imprecise to identify the ideal candidates for surgical tre...

Comparative Analysis of Circulating Biomarkers for Patients Undergoing Resection of Colorectal Liver Metastases
description Surgical tumor resection has evolved as a potentially curative therapy for patients with resectable colorectal liver metastases (CRLM).

Data on the prognostic value of CEA, CA19-9 and other common laboratory parameters after CRLM resection are scarce and partly inconclusive. Here, we analyzed the prognostic potential of circulating CEA and CA19-9 in comparison to other standard laboratory markers in resectable CRLM patients. Serum levels of tumor markers and other laboratory parameters were analyzed in 125 patients with CRLM undergoing tumor resection at a tertiary referral center.
