[Results with the use of the SCC antigen in squamous cell carcinomas of the oral cavity].
The serum concentration of squamous-cell-carcinoma antigen (SCC) and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) in 51 patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity were compared to those of 53 patients with non-malignant disorders of the head and neck. The sensitivity found for SCC was only 24%, but was much higher than for CEA. SCC could be a valuable tool in follow-up monitoring of patients treated for squamous cell carcinomas of the oral cavity.
