Öğe Changes in serum CA-125 levels after laparotomy?(I R O G Canada, Inc, 2004) Atmaca, R; Balat, O; Cekmen, M; Ugur, MG; Kutlar, AI; Aksoy, FThere is no adequate data in the medical literature defining serum CA-125 levels after laparotomy. Therefore we designed this prospective study to evaluate the effects of laparotomy for hysterectomy on serum CA-125 levels. Ninety-four women (mean age 44.6 +/- 6.9 years) were included in the study between January, 2001 and April, 2003. Hysterectomies were performed in patients with chronic pelvic pain, dysfunctional uterine bleeding and myoma uteri. Mean serum CA-125 levels of the patient, before and after laparotomy were 16.29 +/- 8.11 U/ml and 16.37 +/- 8.05 U/ml, respectively. The change in serum CA-125 levels prior to the operation was statistically insignificant when compared with the levels obtained at 24 hours after laparotomy (p > 0.05). We found that laparotomy for hysterectomy did not change the levels of CA-125 at the 24th hour after the operation, indicating either serum CA-125 levels are not correlated, at least within 24 hours, with peritoneal irritation or peritoneal irritation was minimal or absent in our operations.Öğe Is there a change in serum CA-125 levels after laparoscopy?(I R O G Canada, Inc, 2004) Atmaca, R; Balat, O; Ugur, MG; Çekmen, M; Kutlar, I; Aksoy, FThere is no adequate data in the medical literature defining serum CA-125 levels after laparoscopy. Therefore we designed this prospective study to evaluate the effects of laparoscopy on serum CA-125 levels. Eighty-two women (mean age 34.2 +/- 12.30 years) were included in the study between January, 2001 and April, 2003. Laparoscopies were performed in patients with chronic pelvic pain, dysmenorrhea, infertility, ovarian cysts and for tubal ligation. Mean serum CA-125 levels of the patients before and after the laparoscopic procedures were 13.96 +/- 4.86 U/ml and 14.02 +/- 4.96 U/ml, respectively. The change in serum CA-125 levels prior to laparoscopy was statistically insignificant when compared with the levels obtained at 24 hours after laparoscopic procedure (p > 0.05). We found that diagnostic laparoscopy or laparoscopic surgical procedures did not change the levels of CA-125 at the 24th hour after laparoscopy indicating either serum CA-125 levels are not correlated, at least within 24 hours, with peritoneal irritation or peritoneal irritation is minimal or absent in our operations.
