What is Lung Cancer?
Lung cancer is a type of cancer that starts in the lungs, most commonly in the cells lining the air passages. It happens when abnormal cells grow uncontrollably, forming a tumor that can interfere with breathing and spread to other parts of the body. Smoking is the leading cause, but lung cancer can also occur in non-smokers due to genetic factors, air pollution, or prolonged exposure to harmful substances.
Lung cancer is one of the most common and serious cancers worldwide. Its symptoms may include persistent cough, chest pain, shortness of breath, coughing up blood, and unexplained weight loss. Early detection plays a critical role, as treatment outcomes are far better when the disease is diagnosed in the initial stages.

Types of Liver Cancer Surgery

Hepatic Resection
This involves removing the part of the liver affected by cancer while keeping the healthy portion intact. It is mainly done when the liver is strong and functioning well.

Liver Transplant
In this surgery, the diseased liver is replaced with a healthy donor liver. It is suitable for patients with severe liver damage or when cancer cannot be removed safely.

Laparoscopic Liver Surgery
A minimally invasive technique using small cuts and a camera to remove liver tumours. It offers quicker recovery, less pain, and fewer complications compared to open surgery.

Your Guide to Lung Cancer
Long-term smoking is the most prevalent cause of lung cancer since it destroys lung cells, causing their uncontrolled growth. The risk is increased even by exposure to secondhand smoke. Other significant factors are extended contact with products that are harmful, such as asbestos, radon gas, arsenic and air pollution.
Non-smokers may develop lung cancer as a result of genetic mutation, cancer history in the family, or a weakened immune system. There are also instances where there is no apparent cause, and thus early check-ups and awareness are very important in their prevention and detection.
The lung cancer symptoms usually start inconspicuously and deteriorate with time. Some of the initial warning signs will be a cough that is not resolving, coughing blood and chest pains during deep breathing. Shortness of breath and frequent infections such as pneumonia can also be experienced.
Later on, as the illness advances, the patients can experience hoarseness without any clear-cut explanation for weight loss, fatigue, and bone pain due to the spread of the cancer. Since such symptoms are similar to other diseases, medical assessment should be done at the earliest to ensure that the symptoms are properly diagnosed.
The treatment varies according to the cancer of the lung. In early stages, surgery is usually done to remove some of the whole affected lung. Cancer cells are also attacked using radiation therapy and chemotherapy to prevent recurrence.
There has been increased use of advanced treatment such as targeted therapy and immunotherapy in specific types of lung cancer. These recent practices enhance the survival rates since they target the genetic mutations and enhance the immune system of the body to combat cancerous conditions.

Commonly Asked Questions
How serious is lung cancer surgery?
Lung cancer surgery is a major procedure, as it involves removing a part or whole of the lung. It carries risks like bleeding, infection, or breathing difficulties, but modern techniques have made it much safer. The seriousness depends on the patient’s overall health and stage of cancer. With expert care, many patients recover well after surgery.
Can you fully recover from lung cancer?
Recovery depends on the stage at which lung cancer is diagnosed and treated. Early-stage cancers have higher chances of full recovery, especially with surgery and follow-up treatments. Lifestyle changes and regular check-ups are key to long-term health. Many patients lead active lives after treatment.
Can lung cancer be treated by surgery?
Yes, surgery is one of the primary treatments for lung cancer, particularly when the disease is detected early. It involves removing the tumour and affected part of the lung to stop cancer spread. Surgery may be combined with chemotherapy, radiation, or targeted therapy for the best outcomes. The approach is personalised for every patient.
Can you live a normal life after lung cancer surgery?
Many patients can live a normal and fulfilling life after lung cancer surgery. Recovery may take time, but lung capacity often adapts well, allowing people to return to daily activities. A healthy lifestyle, rehabilitation, and regular medical care improve quality of life. With proper management, long-term survival is achievable.
