Overview
The laboratory findings associated with endometrial carcinoma are the following: CBC, serum CA-125 concentration, liver function tests, and pulmonary function tests.
Endometrial Cancer Laboratory Findings
- Complete blood count and differential count,anemia
- Serum CA-125 -The tumor marker is checked, since this can predict advanced stage disease.[1]
- Hypercalcemia may be present due to metastasis to the bone
- Abnormal liver function tests may be present due to metastasis to the liver
- Abnormal pulmonary function testsmay be present due to metastasis to the lung
