Alici S, Kosem M, Kotan C
Abstract
A 62-year-old female was referred for evaluation of enlarged spleen on physical examination. Abdominal examination revealed splenomegaly, the liver was not palpable, and rectal examination was unremarkable. Lactate dehydrogenase level was mildly elevated at 557 U/L (normal range, 240 U/L to 480 U/L). Results of other routine biochemical and hematologic tests were within normal ranges. The carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) level was 19 ng/mL (normal, 0 ng/mL to 3.4 ng/mL).
