Lung Cancer Surgery

Overview

A cancerous tumor that develops in lungs cells is known as lung cancer. This condition causes the cells to divide in the lungs uncontrollably. This leads to the growth of tumors that reduce a persons ability to breathe.   

Sometimes, cells in lung change and no longer behave or grow normally. These changes may lead to benign (non-cancerous) tumours such as papilloma and hamartoma. However, in some cases, these changes in the lungs cells can cause cancer.
