Lung cancer, also known as lung carcinoma, is a malignant lung cancer that is characterized by uncontrolled cell growth in the lung tissue. This growth may spread beyond the lungs through the process of metastasis into adjacent tissues or other parts of the body. Most of the cancer that begins in the lungs, known as the first-line lung cancer, is carcinomas. The two main types are small cell carcinoma (SCLC) and non-small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC). The most common symptoms are cough (including coughing up blood), weight loss, breathing, and chest pain. The majority (85%) of lung cancer cases are due to long-term smoking. About 10-15% of cases come from people who have never smoked. These cases are usually caused by a combination of genes and exposure to radon gas, asbestos, second-hand smoke, or other forms of air pollution.
