Age-stratified analysis of tumor markers and tumor characteristics in adolescents and young women with mature cystic teratoma

Conclusion The results of our study indicate that elevations of CA 19-9 are associated with larger tumor size in women aged 26–35 years, but not in adolescents/young adults. However, elevated serum CA 125 levels are not related to tumor size in either age group.
