The ICD-9 code that you have listed is incorrect. V28.1 is screening for raised aFP levels in amniotic fluid. This code does not mean that the mother has an abnormal AFP level. A more appropriate code would be 655.83 - Other known or suspected fetal abnormality, not elsewhere classified, antepartum. 74.121.64.126 (talk) 15:49, 13 February 2013 (UTC)Angela Smith[reply]

Testicular Testes Tumors

[edit]

If anyone can answer for me -- isn't AFP elevated in germ cell tumors of the testes? Why isn't that in this article? IsaacD (talk) 21:02, 16 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Elevated?

[edit]

Elevated means above reference range but part of the article is about values below reference ranges. Considering the size of the article, why is it not part of the main AFP article? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 37.152.205.143 (talk) 17:22, 14 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
