title: [Diagnostic value of testing the procoagulant activity of neoplasms in cases of stomach and esophageal neoplasms].
abstract: The cancer procoagulant (CP) activity has been evaluated in homogenates of stomach and esophagus cancer tissues and in patients serum. Activity of CP in homogenates of stomach and esophagus cancer tissues as well as in serum of examined cancer patients were statistically higher than in the control group. The data indicate that estimation of CP activity in the neoplasmic tissues homogenates and in serum may be suggested as an new biochemical marker of cancer process useful in oncological diagnosis.
