[A clinicopathological study on carcinoembryonic antigen in breast cancer].

The production of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) by human breast cancer tissue has been studied in relation to the prognosis of 60 patients with breast cancer who were classified in Clinical Stage of UICC I, II and III, and who were treated by radical mastectomy.
