What is small cell lung cancer

Small cell lung cancer develops rapidly and is easy to spread in the early stage. Because it may belong to bronchopulmonary neuroendocrine carcinoma, the exact cause is still unclear. Generally, irritating cough, fever, chest tightness, shortness of breath, chest pain and other symptoms may appear in the early stage. Generally speaking, small cell lung cancer has only the possibility of early surgical treatment. Most small cell lung cancers are mainly chemotherapy. The commonly used chemotherapy regimen is to rely on cytochrome P60 and cisplatin or EP as the main solution. The development of small cell lung cancer is generally malignant and rapid. It is easy to metastasize to lymph nodes in a short period of time and has a poor prognosis, which is equivalent to non-small cell lung cancer. Patients with small cell lung cancer need to pay more attention to early detection and early treatment control. Due to the very rapid development, patients usually have remote metastasis, brain metastasis, and bone metastasis in a short period of time, which affects the patient's life status. Small cell lung cancer refers to small cancer cells that are generally round, oval or fusiform.

How long can a person with advanced lung cancer and water accumulation live?

Lung effusion in the late stage of lung cancer is called pleural effusion in medical standards. How long can a patient live? It is closely related to the tumor type stage, treatment plan and physical condition. It is not possible to give a patient a specific survival time based on whether there is pleural effusion. The treatment of advanced lung cancer is mainly to relieve pain, improve symptoms and improve the patient's quality of life. Patients with advanced lung cancer can live about half a year.

The difference between middle and late stage cancer

Holding your breath can detect the cause of the lack of lungs. This lung cancer needs a CT scan and a tumor marker test to diagnose whether there is lung cancer. Usually, you also need to pay more attention to rest, do not do strenuous exercise, do not smoke, and do not stay up late. This will also be helpful. The difference between mid- and late-stage cancer is in the following two aspects: clinical symptoms and signs. Mid-stage cancer is mainly caused by the symptoms and signs of the primary lesion and surrounding organs, such as: lung cancer is mainly manifested as cough, sputum, chest tightness, and suffocation. This situation is possible. Lung cancer is depressed in the late stage, and the development of late medical professionals refers to respiratory failure.
