Lung Cancer Treatment Cost In Turkey
What is Lung Cancer?
The cancerous growth or cancer arising in the tissue of the lungs is known as lung cancer.
It has the highest mortality rate among cancer deaths. People who smoke are at high risk of having lung cancer.
There are mainly two types of small cell lung cancer and non-small cell cancer.
Symptoms are nonspecific until the advanced stage is reached. The common symptoms are
- wheezing
- Coughing blood
- Chest pain
- Undefined weight loss
How is the Procedure Performed?
Treatment of lung cancer depends mainly on cancer's stage and location and the patient's age.
For early-diagnosed cases, we can do surgical removals like
- Pulmonary lobectomy
- Wedge resection
- Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery.
In advanced cases, Pneumonectomy is done, which means the removal of entire lungs. Surgery is followed by -
- Targeted drug therapy
- Chemotherapy
- Radiation therapy
- Immunotherapy
- Palliative care is vital as the patient's breathing has to be supported superficially
Who is the Right Doctor for Lung Cancer Treatment?
A team of Pulmonologists, Cardiothoracic Surgeons and medical and radiation oncologists are required for the complete diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer.
What tests are required?
Imagining tests for initial investigations are x-ray and Ct-scan, which can reveal the abnormal mass and lung growth.
For the specification of lung cancer, we need to study the sputum cytology and biopsy. Other tests required are bronchoscopy and FNAC.
What is the Usual Success Rate for this Procedure?
The five-year survival rate for lung cancer cases is around 20%, as most chronic smoking cases cannot be treated well.
Lungs being spongy organ, has more chances of metastasis.
