For cyst CEA level, 42.4% of patients with endoscopic diagnosis of pancreatic mucinous cystic neoplasm (intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) and mucinous cystic neoplasms (MCN)) had CEA level >192 ng/mL vs. 15.8% of patients who had another endoscopic diagnosis (chi square = 0.03) with poor agreement level (Kappa = 0.130). The gene discussed is CEACAM5; the disease is pancreatic intraductal papillary-mucinous neoplasm.
