What is Lung Cancer?

Lung Cancer is a serious medical condition in which the cells in the lungs start to grow abnormally and form lumps known as Tumours. These tumours hinder the functioning of the Lungs, primarily in bringing Oxygen into the body.

Common Causes of Lung Cancer

One of the major causes of Lung Cancer is the extensive multiplication of the cells, which ultimately turns into Lung Cancer. Some of the most common causes of lung cancer are mentioned below :
Smoking: Smoking cigarettes introduces carcinogenic substances into the pulmonary system in the body. Most cases of Lung Cancer are associated with approximately 85% of smoking.
Air pollution: Prolonged exposure to contaminated air increases the risk of developing lung cancer.
Genetic factors: A family history of Lung Cancer might also be a reason for lung cancer.

Common Signs and Symptoms of Lung Cancer

Lung cancer usually shows subtle signs and symptoms that can be easily overlooked. Hence, making it difficult for early detection.

Types of Lung Cancer

There are two main types of Lung Cancer:
NSCLC, or non-small cell Lung Cancer: About 85% of all cases are this type, thus making it the most common. This group includes large cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and adenocarcinoma.

SCLC, or small cell Lung Cancer: This is the type of Lung Cancer that accounts for some 15% of Lung Cancers. Highly aggressive but of low prevalence. Small cell carcinoma and mixed small cell carcinoma are included.

Stages of Lung Cancer

Lung Cancer stage depends on the size, lymph node involvement, and metastasis. Early detection and stage-specific therapy are critical to improve the survival rate and quality of life.

NSCLC Staging:

Stage 0 (Carcinoma in Situ): Cancer cells present, but not spread more than the top levels of the lung tissue.
Stage I: Tumour is solely present in the lung with no extension to the lymph nodes.
Stage II: Cancer has spread to nearby lymph nodes or other lung areas.
Stage III: Spread to adjacent tissues or lymph nodes in the chest.
Stage IV: Cancer has spread to other organs such as the liver, brain, or bones.

Stages of Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC):

Limited Stage: Lymph nodes and the lungs contain Cancer.
Extensive Stage: The Cancer has migrated to other parts of the body from the lungs.
