Specialized Lung Cancer Treatment:
Expertise Across a Range of Thoracic Cancers
At our hospital, we treat a broad spectrum of lung-related cancers, providing specialized care for various types of thoracic malignancies. Our expertise includes:
Adenocarcinoma
The most common form of lung cancer, particularly in non-smokers, affecting the outer regions of the lungs.
Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC)
A more aggressive form of lung cancer that tends to spread quickly, often requiring intensive treatment protocols such as chemotherapy and radiation.
Thymoma
A rare tumor originating from the thymus gland, located in the chest, and often associated with autoimmune diseases like myasthenia gravis.
Mesothelioma
A rare and aggressive cancer typically linked to asbestos exposure, affecting the lining of the lungs (pleura).
Malignant Pleural Effusion
The accumulation of cancerous fluid in the space between the lungs and chest wall, often associated with advanced stages of lung cancer or other thoracic malignancies.
Bronchial Cancers
Cancers that form in the bronchial tubes, affecting the airways and lung function.
Superior Vena Cava Syndrome
A complication caused by the compression or obstruction of the superior vena cava, often due to lung cancer, lymphoma, or other thoracic cancers.
Lymphoma
Cancers originating in the lymphatic system, which can sometimes affect the thoracic region and involve the lungs or surrounding lymph nodes.
Mediastinal Node Cancers
Cancers that form in the lymph nodes located in the mediastinum, the central part of the chest.
Germ Cell Tumors
Rare tumors that can occur in the chest area, arising from reproductive cells that fail to develop normally.
Sarcomas
A diverse group of cancers that can form in the soft tissues or bones of the chest and lungs.
Our multidisciplinary team of thoracic oncology specialists collaborates closely to develop personalized treatment plans for each patient. This tailored approach ensures that we address the specific characteristics of each patient's diagnosis, providing a comprehensive treatment strategy that may include surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, targeted therapies, and immunotherapy. Every patient’s journey is unique, and we are committed to offering the highest quality of care, no matter the complexity of the cancer.
Lung secondaries
Lung secondaries, or lung metastases, occur when cancer spreads to the lungs from another part of the body. Common primary sources include breast, colorectal, kidney, and prostate cancers, as well as melanoma and sarcomas. Often detected through imaging tests like chest X-rays and CT scans, lung secondaries may present with symptoms such as persistent cough, shortness of breath, chest pain, or can be asymptomatic in early stages. Treatment options vary based on the type and extent of the cancer and may include chemotherapy, targeted therapy, surgery, or radiation. Early detection and comprehensive care can help manage symptoms and improve quality of life for patients.
Screening Methods for Lung Cancer
Low-Dose Computed Tomography (LDCT)
Low-Dose CT (LDCT) is the most effective screening method for lung cancer. It uses a series of X-rays to create detailed images of the lungs. LDCT is recommended for individuals at high risk, such as those aged 50 to 80 who have a history of heavy smoking (30 pack-years or more). Annual screenings are suggested for people who currently smoke or have quit within the past 15 years. This method detects lung cancer in its early stages and is non-invasive, with minimal radiation exposure.
Chest X-ray
Chest X-rays are a traditional imaging method used to check for abnormalities in the lungs. However, they are less sensitive compared to LDCT scans and are not typically recommended for routine lung cancer screening. While widely available and quick, chest X-rays may not effectively detect early-stage lung cancers.
Sputum Cytology
Sputum cytology involves examining a sample of mucus (sputum) coughed up from the lungs for the presence of cancer cells. This non-invasive method can detect certain types of lung cancers, especially those located centrally in the lungs. However, it is rarely used because of its low sensitivity in detecting early-stage cancers.
