A member asked:

My chloride, serum is 100 mgol/l. my phosphorus is 3.6 mg/dl. i've read a ratio lower than 29 could be suggestive of malignancy. should i worry?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Serum electrolytes: Both the chloride and phosphorus level you mentioned are within normal range, electrolyte disturbance may happen with different cancers based on the type of cancers. But I am not aware of the low chloride and phosphorus ratio being diagnostic of any cancer.
