Aim: To prospectively question the prevalence of psychological distress knowing by lung malignancy patients during COVID-19 universal, the factors providing in its increase, and the impact of health position of control on it.Materials and Methods: 160 consecutive lung malignancy outpatients were studied, at the Oncology Clinic of Chest Diseases...

Lung Cancer is individual of the leading causes for malignancy related deaths accompanying a 5-year endurance rate of only 18%.These are broadly divided into 2 types: NSCLC (non-limited cell alveolus cancer) and SCLC (small container lung tumor) and although treatments like a destructive agent, targeted situations are commonly used,...

In high-risk patients, fine needle aspiration with cell blocks can be used to diagnose lung cancer. Because ancillary studies are critical for lung cancer diagnosis, subtyping, and prediction of targeted therapy response, good cellularity and morphology are critical. Due to a lack of consistency in cell block preparation processes,...

Background: In advanced non-small cell lung cancer relapses, few rebiopsies are being performed. They are not commonly used in lung cancer clinical practise. However, without identifying the type of new lesions, it is impossible to adequately target therapy in cases of relapse. Clarify the existing situation and investigate the...

We conducted phase II randomized study to determine whether oligometastatic NSCLC without disease progression after first line chemotherapy, have pro-longed progression free survival when treated with local consolidation therapy of residual disease followed by surveillance compared with no local consolidation therapy (observation). Forty eight eligible patients were randomized to...

Background: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of perioperative tiotropium therapy for patients undergoing pulmonary resection for primary lung cancer. The short-term tiotropium effect was investigated by perioperative pulmonary function and “lung age”.  Methods: The fifty-five patients who underwent a lobectomy and had tiotropium treatment...

Surgical management of the cancer with empyema has rarely been reported in the literature because few of such cases are operable. Many patients might be misevaluated because of the incorrect staging associated with an acute or sub- acute infection. Even in the presence of an operable tumor mass; surgeons...
