Definition of CA 27-29
CA 27–29 definition - medical term
A tumor marker similar to the CA 15–3 that is found in the blood
of most breast cancer patients. CA 27–29 levels may be used in conjunction with
other procedures (such as mammograms and measurements of other tumor marker levels)
to check for recurrence in women previously treated for stage II and stage III breast
cancer.
CA 27–29 levels can also be elevated by cancers of the colon, stomach, kidney,
lung, ovary, pancreas, uterus, and liver. First trimester pregnancy, endometriosis,
ovarian cysts, benign breast disease, kidney disease, and liver disease are noncancerous
conditions that can also elevate CA 27–29 levels.
