PurposeSerum CA-125 level is commonly used as indicator for ovarian cancer recurrence. However, its value for the prediction of neoplastic lesions is unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate whether CA-125 concentrations are indicative of adnexal dysplasia and cancer in women at hereditary high risk of ovarian/tubal cancer.Patients and MethodsCA-125 was obtained from 424 women at hereditary high risk of ovarian/tubal cancer attending the VU University Medical Center ( Amsterdam, the Netherlands) between 1993 and 2005. Serum samples obtained at the second-to-last ( n = 64) and last ( n = 98) visit before surgery were tested in women who underwent adnexal surgery for diagnostic ( n = 9) or prophylactic ( n = 89) reasons. Serum samples obtained from 370 age-matched healthy women were used as controls.ResultsBoth the absolute value ( P
