Lung cancer is one of the most common and serious cancers worldwide. It begins when abnormal cells in the lungs grow uncontrollably, forming malignant tumors that can impair breathing and spread to other parts of the body. Early detection and tailored treatment are essential for improving survival and quality of life.
What is Lung Cancer?
Lung cancer arises in the tissues of the lungs, typically in the lining of the air passages. It is broadly categorized into two main types:
• Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC):The most common type, includes subtypes like adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and large cell carcinoma.
• Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC):A more aggressive type that spreads quickly.
Symptoms
- Persistent cough or worsening cough
- Coughing up blood (hemoptysis)
- Shortness of breath or wheezing
- Chest pain or discomfort
- Unexplained weight loss and fatigue
- Recurring respiratory infections like pneumonia
Causes & Risk Factors
- Tobacco smoking (primary cause)
- Exposure to secondhand smoke
- Radon gas exposure
- Occupational exposure to asbestos, arsenic, and other carcinogens
- Air pollution and genetic predisposition
Diagnosis
- Clinical examination and detailed patient history
- Imaging tests: Chest X-ray, CT scan, PET-CT to detect and stage tumors
- Sputum cytology and biopsy for definitive diagnosis
- Molecular testing to identify genetic mutations (EGFR, ALK, ROS1, etc.) for targeted therapy
Treatment Options
- Chemotherapy:Drugs to kill cancer cells and control tumor growth
- Targeted Therapy: Precision drugs aimed at specific genetic changes driving cancer
- Immunotherapy: Boosts the immune system to attack cancer cells
- Radiation Therapy: High-energy rays to destroy cancer cells and reduce symptoms
- Surgical Intervention:: Removal of tumor in early-stage lung cancer
Prognosis & Follow-up
Early-stage lung cancer has better treatment outcomes, while advanced stages require comprehensive care. Regular follow-ups are crucial for monitoring response, managing side effects, and early detection of recurrence
