Department of Oncology, Ji'nan Sixth People's Hospital Ji'nan, Shandong Province, China.
Objective: To evaluate the predictive value of circulating tumor cell count (CTC) and serum carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) mRNA levels in postoperative recurrence of digestive tract cancer.
Methods: A total of 52 patients with digestive tract cancer who underwent radical resection in our hospital were divided into a recurrent group (n=18) and a non-recurrent group (n=34). The CTC and CEA mRNA levels of the two groups were compared one day before the operation.
