Immunoperoxidase staining for carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) was performed on the tumors of 88 patients with epithelial ovarian cystadenocarcinomas treated at the University of Kentucky Medical Center from 1962 to 1975. Pretherapy plasma CEA determinations were obtained in 45 of these patients, and
