Abstract

Levels of carotene, vitamin A, and vitamin C measured in the serum of patients with cancer of the breast and uterine cervix were compared with levels in healthy controls and patients with benign diseases of the breast and cervix. Serum ascorbate levels were significantly lower in patients with benign diseases of the breast and cervix than in controls. In cancer patients, there was a significant trend of lower serum vitamin levels with increasing stage of the disease.
