Congrats to @MikeWach_MD and @melanieongchin on an awesome new @AnnSurgOncol publication featuring our CRS/HIPEC database! @PittSurgOnc has a long history of helping patients with peritoneal surface malignancies and our fellows explore this data to help future patients too!
Excited to share our work in @AnnSurgOncol regarding CEA’s role for Colorectal Peritoneal Mets 🧪🩸 Use of serum biomarkers in CRPM is rapidly evolving but for now CEA represents a tried and true method of assessing disease response and prognosis.
