  • Zgodnje odkrivanje pljučnega raka = Early detection of lung cancer
    Terčelj-Zorman, Marjeta ...
    Lung cancer accounts for 18% of all malignant diseases among men, and is the leading cause of cancer deaths among both men and women. The most important risk factor for lung cancer is cigarette ... smoking. More than 90% of patients with lung cancer are symptomatic at presentation. Surgical therapy is the mostsuccessful type of treatment, and if caught in the early stages of the disease allows complete healing. Today, lung cancer continues to be detected late; therefore, a 5-year mortality rate from the time of presentation remainsat approximately 85-90%. An invasive carcinoma is the result of long-term carcinogenesis. Preneoplastic changes can resolve spontaneously. Chemoprevention, endoscopic photodynamic therapy and laser therapy are also being developed for the treatment of preneoplastic changes. Because of better survival in case of early detection, methods for early diagnosis of lung cancer are developing imaging methods, endoscopy, methods for sputum analysis,immunocytochemical and genetic biomarkers.
