This paper reports a case of endometriosis in which the patient had markedly elevated serum CA19-9 levels, a tumor marker typically associated with pancreatic and biliary malignancies but also elevated in various benign conditions such as biliary obstruction, cholangitis, inflammatory bowel disease, pancreatitis, liver cirrhosis, cystic fibrosis, thyroid disease, and peritoneal irritation. The authors describe CA19-9’s general diagnostic and monitoring uses in pancreatic cancer and emphasize its known potential to rise in non-malignant settings. A key limitation is that the evidence is presented as a single case report rather than a larger comparative study establishing diagnostic thresholds or causality. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it presents an endometriosis case with high serum CA19-9 as the main clinical focus.

Abstract

CA19-9 özellikle safra kanalı ve pankreas kanserlerinde yüksek olarak saptanan bir tümör belirtecidir. Bu durumlara ek olarak kolon, mide, over, karaciğer ve özafagus kanserleri gibi diğer malign durumlarda da yüksek seviyelerde saptanır.CA19-9 pankreas kanseri tanısıyla takip edilen hastaların yanıt değerlendirmesinde ve nüksün belirlenmesinde kullanılır. Ayrıca pankreas kanserinin ayırıcı tanısında da yol gösterici olabilir. 1-3 CA19-9 seviyesinin yüksek olarak saptanabildiği benign durumlar arasında safra yolu obstrüksiyonu, kolanjit, inflamatuar barsak hastalığı, akut veya kronik pankreatit, karaciğer sirozu, kistik fibrozis, tiroid hastalıkları ve periton irritasyonu bulunur. 4 Bu yazıda yüksek CA19-9 seviyesine yol açan endometriozis tanılı olgumuzu sunmaktayız.
