title: [Transferrin and serum ferritin in tumor patients].
abstract: Serum iron, an iron absorption test, transferrin and serumferritin were investigated in patients with malignant disease. A positive correlation was found between increased serumferritin and decreased transferrin and the clinical tumor staging in single cases of acute leukemia and in advanced tumor stages.
