Changes of serum proteins in patients with malignant gynaecological tumours.
The changes of 13 serum proteins in 53 ovarian tumour patients were studied by the radial immunodiffusion method from the beginning of treatment, during the course of disease. As to the course of the disease, in 6 of them characteristic and significant changes were observed. These were prealbumin, alpha 1-anti-trypsin, orosomucoid, coeruloplasmin, transferrin and haptoglobin. Although the differences could be evaluated as an average of investigations, the value of the examinations is greatly reduced by the very high scatter of the individual values.
