Auszug
Als Tumormarker werden Substanzen bezeichnet, deren Auftreten und Konzentrationsänderung in gewisser Beziehung mit der Entstehung und dem Wachstum von malignen Tumoren eines Individuums stehen. Es wäre von großem Vorteil, wenn es mit Hilfe eines einfachen Labortestes möglich wäre, ein Karzinom zu einem frühen, daher noch heilbaren Stadium, zu diagnostizieren. Auf alle Fälle in einem Stadium in dem noch keine Metastasen aufgetreten sind. Einen derartigen Test gibt es aber leider noch nicht. Dazu kommt, dass die Tumormarker-Spiegel in Körperflüssigkeiten (Blut, Harn etc.) auch bei benignen Erkrankungen, oder durch präanalytische Einflussgrößen erhöht sein können. Tumormarker sind daher als Screeningparameter (mit wenigen Ausnahmen) nicht geeignet! (1, 2, 3, 4).
