High CEA levels in a case of resected colorectal cancer: delayed diagnosis of metachronous medullary thyroid cancer
BACKGROUND: Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is one of the most widely used tumor markers, and its value in the surveillance of post-operative colorectal cancer is well established. Fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) has been clinically used in colorectal cancer imaging includin...
