Laboratory examination:
Reduced hemoglobin, erythrocyte sedimentation rate accelerated, the majority of patients with platelet count increased, platelet-up to the individual reported that 1000 × 109 / L, indicates a poor prognosis of serum carcinoembryonic antigen in some patients with elevated serum alpha-fetoprotein normal. Serum IgG, IgA, or IgM increased, the reasons for not yet specified, but can also have elevated serum anti-diuretic hormone, hemolytic anemia, hypercoagulable state, hypercalcemia low blood sugar, etc.
Other auxiliary check:
1.X-ray chest image and the lateral anterior, as can clearly show ipsilateral pleural effusion, often accounting for 50% of cupping the side of the chest Network. About half of patients in addition to pleural effusion, the chest X-ray can also be seen on the pleura along the wavy wall showing the growth of multiple ù clumps shadow, as well as diffuse pleural nodular pleural thickening and pleural calcification may be associated with. These diffuse malignant pleural mesothelioma diagnosis provide valuable clues. Ipsilateral lung tumor tissue was wrapped ipsilateral mediastinal shift with tumor side of the chest cavity smaller condition late X-ray showed widened mediastinum, pericardial effusion to expand the heart shadow, showing soft tissue shadow and rib destruction of cupping network.
2. Chest CT can show the tumor size and scope. Know whether the tumor invaded beyond the borders of ipsilateral mediastinal structures ù chest, or under the invasion of the diaphragm and the diaphragm structure is very important. Typical performance is: can show ipsilateral thorax narrowed, pleural thickening and pleural effusion significant health search, a small number of cases of pleural plaques can be seen. In addition, chest CT also clearly shows along the pleural surface of large irregular-shaped lumps, some of the growth of tumors along the interlobar fissure and extends into the mediastinum, the diaphragm, there are also long into the contralateral posterior mediastinum through the chest can still be seen in some patients pulmonary surface nodules, nodules have irregular calcification. Last Health Search in the chest CT and tumor on the chest wall along the edge you can see a dense calcified plaque and line-like calcification in the chest CT and sometimes visible tumors grow bony thorax, ribs and chest wall soft tissue damage block shadow (Figure 3 Health Search 4).
