Keywords: | Carcinoembryonic antigen; Ferritin; Oral potentially malignant disorder; Oral submucous fibrosis; Squamous cell carcinoma antigen | Issue Date: | Jul-2021 | Journal Volume: | 16 | Journal Issue: | 3 | Source: | Journal of dental sciences | Abstract: | Our previous study showed that carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCC-Ag), and ferritin are significantly higher in patients with oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs including oral leukoplakia, oral erythroleukoplakia, and oral verrucous hyperplasia) than in healthy controls (HCs). Oral submucous fibrosis (OSF) is also recognized as an OPMD. This study evaluated whether these three serum tumor marker levels were also significantly higher in OSF patients than in HCs. |
