Abstract

Objective To investigate the significance of tumor markers in ageing patients with lung cancer.Methods The level of NSE,CEA,CA125,CYFRA21-1,CA19-9 in 65 ageing patients with lung cancer and 29 patients with benign lung lesion were detected by ELISA.Results The specificity of NSE,CEA,CA125,CYFRA21-1,CA19-9 was 88.6%,84.3%,85.3%,82.5%,83.9% respectively and the sensitivity was 16.8%,55.9%,55.6%,26.6%,24.9%.Conclusion NSE in patients with small cell lung cancer was higher than that of other subtypes of the lung cancer(P0.01).5 tumor markers have a clinical significance for diagnosing lung cancer.
