Usefulness of carcinoembryonic antigen doubling time in prognosis prediction after curative resection of locally recurrent rectal cancer: A retrospective study

Published: Nov 8, 2021
Abstract
Introduction: Given that doubling time is an indicator of tumor growth, we assessed the usefulness of carcinoembryonic antigen doubling time (CEA-DT) in prognosis prediction after curative resection for locally recurrent rectal cancer.
