Alpha Fetoprotein Origin --- correct answer ---Liver and germ cell
tumors
Carcinoembryonic Antigen --- correct answer ---GI, pancreas, lung,
breast tumors
Beta Human Chorionic gonadotropin origin --- correct answer ---germ
cell tumors
Prostate Specific Antigen --- correct answer ---prostate tumors
Carcino- --- correct answer ---from epithelial tissue- renal cell
carcinoma
Sarco- --- correct answer ---from connective tissue- chondrosarcoma
-oma --- correct answer ---benign tumor- lipoma
,Carcinoma in situ --- correct answer ---preinvasive epithelial
malignant tumors of glandular or squamous cells- cervix
-blastoma --- correct answer ---from blasts or immature cells-
neuroblastoma

brain
Colorectal ca metastasis --- correct answer ---Liver, lungs
Testicular ca metastasis --- correct answer ---Liver, lungs, brain
Prostate ca metastasis --- correct answer ---Bones (especially lumbar
spine), liver
Breast ca metastasis --- correct answer ---Liver, lungs, brain, bones
Head and neck ca metastasis --- correct answer ---Liver, bones,
lymphatics
, Ovarian ca metastasis --- correct answer ---Peritoneal surfaces,
diaphragm, omentum, liver
Sarcoma metastasis --- correct answer ---Lungs
Melanoma metastasis --- correct answer ---In transit lymphatics,
lung, liver, brain, GI tract
Mechanisms of ca metastasis --- correct answer ---Local invasion,
followed by invasion of surrounding tissues. Cells then may invade
blood and lymphatic vessels. They must survive in circulation, then
enter and survive in a new location. Then the cells can multiply and
form a new tumor.
TNM staging system --- correct answer ---T= tumor size >/=
correlates with metastatic ability
N= whether lymph nodes are involved
M= extra nodal involvement (liver, lungs)
Intravascular fluid compartment --- correct answer ---In venous
system- 20%
