ABSTRACT
Background: The tumor marker CA-125 is the most widely used serum
marker for ovarian cancer screening. The aim of this paper was to establish
the association between histopathologic result of ovarian tumors
with serologic CA-125 and utility for the diagnosis of ovarian tumors at a
Ginecoobstetric hospital.
Methods: An observational, retrospective, descriptive and longitudinal
study, from September 1st 2010 to February 28 2013. All patients with
histopathologic report ovarian tumor and CA-125 was selected to analyze
the association of ovarian tumors with their histological type, biological
behavior, range positivity of CA-125 and its relationship to the pre
and postmenopausal state.
Results: Of 1213 patients, 334 were included. Utility of CA-125 in postmenopausal
reported positive predictive value of 67.5%, with sensitivity
(72%), specificity (82.6%) and negative predictive value (86.1%), both
with
p = 0.001, mainly in the epithelial origin. In premenopausal a low
positive predictive value was reported.
Conclusions: The CA-125 is useful for screening for ovarian cancer in
postmenopausal women, mainly for epithelial origin.
