title: [Tumor markers and ovarian cysts].
abstract: A practical review of tumor markers, particularly CA125 is proposed. The questions are: what is the role of CA125 assay in cancer screening programs, can preoperative CA125 level predict the benign or malignant nature of an adnexal anomaly, can postoperative CA125 predict the quality of surgical resection of cancer of the ovary?
