Abstract

Cancer Antigen (CA-125) is a tumor marker used to detect ovarian cancer. This study aims to determine the relationship of VEGF expression and the levels of CA-125 on primary tumor associated with stage, degree of differentiation and histopathological types of epithelial ovarian cancer. This study is an observational study with a cross sectional design in Wahidin Sudirohusodo Hospital and some parts teaching hospital of Obstetrics and Gynecology began in August 2015 to February 2016. The population was all patients with epithelial ovarian cancer who were treated and underwent surgery at the hospital who met the inclusion criteria. The data were processed using SPSS with bivariate analysis Mann Whitney, Kruskal Wallis and Spearman's Rho. The result there were significant differences of VEGF expression in cell differentiation and histopathological type (p <0.05). There are significant differences in the levels of CA-125 with clinical stage, differentiation of cells and histopathological type (p <0.05). The expression of VEGF is getting stronger when the type of epithelial ovarian cancer is getting bad influence on the degree of cells differentiation and the histopathological type. CA-125 levels obtained increased at an advanced stage and degree of cells differentiation are bad for ovarian cancer. There is a positive correlation between the expression of VEGF and CA-125 levels in epithelial ovarian cancer but was not significantly different and the relationship is weak.
