Prognostic value of postoperative serum carcinoembryonic antigen levels in colorectal cancer patients with chronic kidney disease

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) can increase serum carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) levels. We thus aimed to evaluate the impact of CKD on CEA prognostic accuracy in colorectal cancer. Altogether, 429 patients who underwent curative resection for stages I–III colorectal adenocarcinoma were grouped accord...

Zusammenfassung:Chronic kidney disease (CKD) can increase serum carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) levels. We thus aimed to evaluate the impact of CKD on CEA prognostic accuracy in colorectal cancer. Altogether, 429 patients who underwent curative resection for stages I–III colorectal adenocarcinoma were grouped according to postoperative CEA levels and history of CKD. Three-year disease-free survival (DFS) was higher in patients with normal postoperative CEA (group A, 83.4%) than in those with elevated postoperative CEA (group B, 64.3%) (p
