How to treat cirrhosis of liver?
Patient: My mother has cerosis of the liver, but when blood work was done, ca 125 , showed up in her blood results. My mother has had a partial hystro, leaving her ovaries, some 39 years ago. They have checked the ovaries and they show to be fine. Besides ovarian ca, what else is this enzyme associated with? Doctor: Hi,Raised CA-125 levels suggest ovarian malignancy but if ovaries are fine & partial hysterectomy is done, then the other possibility of raised CA-125 could be cirrhosis of liver, although its rare & non-specific for liver.I hope, my answer will help you.Regards,Dr. Maria Daud
