Contact Us Search MedlinePlus Lung cancer is cancer that begins in the lungs, the two organs found in the chest that help you breathe. The lungs are made up of areas called lobes. The right lung has three lobes; the left lung has two, so there's room for the heart. When you breathe, air goes through your nose, down your windpipe (trachea), and into the lungs where it spreads through tubes called bronchi. Most lung cancer begins in the cells that line these tubes. There are two main types of lung cancer: If the lung cancer is made up of both types, it is called mixed small cell/large cell cancer. If the cancer started somewhere else in the body and spread to the lungs, it is called metastatic cancer to the lung Lung cancer is the deadliest type of cancer for both men and women. Each year, more people die of lung cancer than breast, colon, and prostate cancers combined.

    Extractions: Skip to Content Keyword Lung cancer occurs when cells in the lung grow and multiply uncontrollably, damaging surrounding tissue and interfering with the normal function of the lung. The cells can spread to other parts of the body. When the disease spreads, it is still called lung cancer. November is Lung Cancer Awareness month. Visit our lung cancer awareness web page to read stories about lung cancer survivors, watch short videos about breakthroughs in treatment and screening and take the cancer risk check to learn more about your risk for lung or other cancers.  Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for 80% of all lung cancers. Non-small cell lung cancers include adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma and large cell carcinoma. They generally spread very slowly to other organs in the body, and can be hard to detect in the early stages. Small cell lung cancer is responsible for about 20% of all lung cancers. Also known as “oat cell” cancer, it spreads very quickly through the lungs to other parts of the body.

51. Causes Of Lung Cancer | What Causes Lung Cancer
    Many pollutants increase the risk of lung cancer, in addition to tobacco smoke. Here are descriptions of some.  
    http://www.lung-cancer.com/causes.html
    
    Extractions: Causes of Lung Cancer The etiology, or the root cause of lung cancer, is not always evident. Although tobacco smoking is the primary etiological factor, scientists agree that many lung cancers have no single cause, but are instead the result of a combination of several causes that may include exposure to radon, asbestos, environmental tobacco smoke, and exposures to other hazardous materials. Don't just assume that your lung cancer was caused by smoking alone. Lung cancer is also a significant health problem among patients who have never smoked (referred to as "never smokers"). You could have been exposed to carcinogens decades ago, and many people with lung cancer cannot easily remember these exposures. Call us at 1-800-998-9729 and we may be able to help you identify where you came into contact with hazardous materials that could have increased your risk for lung cancer. Radon.

    Extractions: Contact Us Lung cancer is the leading cancer killer in every state. As a society, we can no longer ignore the 171,000 Americans who will be diagnosed with lung cancer every year and the 46 million former smokers at risk for the disease. A substantial amount of the money coming to the states from the tobacco settlement should be used not only for smoking prevention and cessation programs but also to meet the very real needs of people living with or at risk for lung cancer. If states focus only on prevention and cessation to alleviate smoking-related illness, they will fail to save thousands of lives and to reduce the enormous suffering caused by lung cancer. Programs for early detection, education about lung cancer and treatment options, and access to psycho social support must also receive funding. In the United States, most people newly diagnosed with lung cancer are former smokers and people who never smoked. Former smokers carry a lifelong increased risk for lung cancer. For these people, early diagnosis is critical for survival. However, because there is no accepted lung cancer screening policy, 85% of people are diagnosed in late-stage disease. In addition, a prevailing attitude of fear and blame surrounds lung cancer and discourages people at risk from seeking medical attention. Detecting lung cancer in its earliest stages allows more treatment options, offers the best chance for cure, and is cost-effective, compared with treating late-stage disease. Current research on several screening methods holds great promise for early detection. Once diagnosed, people deserve immediate referral to oncology professionals and informational materials to guide their healthcare decisions, regardless of stage of disease or age. They should have access to personal support services and programs to enhance their quality of life. The Alliance for Lung Cancer calls for a broad educational campaign about lung cancer in every state, with the goal of saving lives now and for decades to come. Tobacco settlement funds should support these efforts.
