OBJECTIVE
To investigate whether bile survivin and carbohydrate antigen 199 (CA199) can be helpful in distinguishing cholangiocarcinoma (malignant obstructive jaundice) from benign obstructive jaundice.
METHODS
Receiver operating characteristic curve was used to evaluate the feasibility of bile survivin and CA199 in differentiating cholangiocarcinoma from benign obstructive jaundice.
RESULTS
The area under the curve for survivin and CA199 in bile and serum were 0.780 (p < 0.001), 0.6 (p = 0.084), 0.746 (p < 0.001) and 0.542 (p = 0.464), respectively. Combination of bile survivin and CA199 could improve the diagnostic capability.
CONCLUSIONS
Bile survivin and CA199 are significantly increased in patients with cholangiocarcinoma and may be useful biomarkers in differentiating distinguishing cholangiocarcinoma from benign obstructive jaundice.
