Overview
An elevated/reduced concentration of serum/blood/urinary/CSF/other [lab test] is diagnostic of [disease name]. OR
Laboratory findings consistent with the diagnosis of [disease name] include [abnormal test 1], [abnormal test 2], and [abnormal test 3].
OR
[Test] is usually normal among patients with [disease name].
OR
Some patients with [disease name] may have elevated/reduced concentration of [test], which is usually suggestive of [progression/complication]. OR
There are no diagnostic laboratory findings associated with [disease name].
Laboratory Findings
- Histopathologic studies may aid in diagnosing the malignant struma ovarii when there is no evidence of clinical malignancy or metastases. [1]
- Elevated levels of CA 125 has been reported rarely in approximately only 8-10 cases so far. [2] [3]
