MeSH Lung cancer is a disease which consists of uncontrolled cell growth in tissues of the lung . This growth may lead to metastasis , which is the invasion of adjacent tissue and infiltration beyond the lungs. The vast majority of primary lung cancers are carcinomas of the lung , derived from epithelial cells. Lung cancer , the most common cause of cancer-related death in men and women, is responsible for 1.3 million deaths worldwide annually, as of 2004. The most common symptoms are shortness of breath, coughing (including coughing up blood ), and weight loss. The main types of lung cancer are small cell lung carcinoma and non-small cell lung carcinoma . This distinction is important, because the treatment varies; non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) is sometimes treated with surgery , while small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC) usually responds better to chemotherapy and radiation.

Definition
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: Review Date: 9/14/2009

What is lung cancer?
Cancer is a disease in which certain body cells don't function right, divide very fast, and produce too much tissue that forms a tumor. The lungs, a pair of sponge-like, cone-shaped organs, are part of the body's respiratory system. When we breathe in, the lungs take in oxygen, which our cells need to live and carry out their normal functions. When we breathe out, the lungs get rid of carbon dioxide, which is a waste product of the body's cells. Cancers that begin in the lungs are divided into two major types, non-small cell lung cancer and small cell lung cancer, depending on how the cells look under a microscope. Each type of lung cancer grows and spreads in different ways and is treated differently. Return to Top

    Introduction:
    Lung cancer is the most common cause of cancer death, not only in the United States, but also around the world. Lung cancer is responsible for an estimated 160,000 deaths in the United States annually. There are two major types: non-small cell lung cancer and small cell lung cancer, so named because of how the cells look under a microscope. Non-small cell lung cancer is more common, and it generally grows and spreads more slowly. There are three main types of non-small cell lung cancer, named for the type of cells in which the cancer develops: squamous cell carcinoma, adenocarcinoma, and large cell lung cancer. Small cell lung cancer grows more quickly and is more likely to spread to other organs in the body.
    Signs and Symptoms:
    • A persistent cough that gets worse over time Constant chest pain Coughing up blood

Lung cancer is often fatal
The female sex hormone oestrogen may be to blame for putting women at greater risk of lung cancer. US researcher Dr Jill Siegfried, from the University of Pittsburgh, has carried out an analysis of research into why women should be a greater risk of the killer disease. In both the UK and US, lung cancer now kills more women than breast cancer.
The concentration of sex hormones may influence the growth rate of lung tumours
Dr Jill Siegfried This is partly due to the fact there has been an increase in the number of women smoking since the 1960s. However, Dr Siegfried found that among people who smoke the same amount, women may be up to twice as likely to develop lung cancer as men. In addition, non-smokers who develop lung cancer are two and a half times more likely to be female than male. Adverse effect Dr Siegfried believes that the higher susceptibility of women to the adverse effects of tobacco could be associated with their higher levels of oestrogen.
