title: [Blood and urinary values of CEA and CA 19-9 in patients with bladder carcinoma].
abstract: Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and Ca 19-9 levels in urine and serum from 46 patients with bladder cancer in varying stages have been evaluated. All samples of urine were obtained germ-free and without bacterial infection in the bladder. The sensitivity of CEA monoclonal antibody is 60.8% and specificity is 80%. Ca 19-9 test has higher sensitivity (74%) and the same specificity. Correlation between staging, grading and CEA or Ca 19-9 values were also evaluated.
