Comparative study of clinico-radiological pattern of patients with small cell and non small cell lung cancer
Keywords:
lung cancer, small cell lung cancer (SCLC), non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)Abstract
Bronchogenic carcinoma is a malignant neoplasm of the lung arising from the epithelium of the bronchus. NSCLCs are a heterogeneous group, of which the most common subtypes are squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma. Squamous cell carcinomas are also predominantly linked to smoking. This study is planned to describe the clinical and radiological presentation of Small cell and Non-small cell lung cancer. The study included one hundred thirty patients admitted in various wards of hospital in chest Diseases and Tuberculosis & General Medicine department, at National institute of medical science & research, Jaipur between January, 2021 and December, 2021. Only those patients diagnosed as Primary lung cancer were included in this study. The present study included 130 proven cases of lung cancer. Two major histo-types of lung cancer SCLC and NSCLC were then correlated with their clinical and radiological features. 65 patients of each group were selected for study. Cough (with or without expectoration) was the common symptom (83.08%) observed in lung cancer patients. Chest pain was the next common symptom (80.77%) and had similar distribution in SCLC and NSCLC group patients. weight loss and Dyspnoea were the next common symptom observed.
