%X Previous investigations reported inverse relationship between prostate-specific antigen concentration and body mass index (BMI). These results have been explained by a hemodilution effect among obese men. However, the hemodilution of serum carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) concentration in obese patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has not been ever reported
