[Clinico-enzymologic parallels in patients of reproductive age with benign epithelial ovarian tumors].
Proteolytic enzymes and their inhibitors have been assayed in sera of 120 patients with benign epithelial ovarian tumors during preoperative menstrual cycles and in 3 years following surgery. The patients showed imbalances in protease inhibitors which failed to be improved by the operative treatment in a proportion of patients. Follow-up of this patient population is recommendable. A serum elastase test was proposed to predict benign epithelial ovarian tumors.
