Then using the same ultrasound bronchoscope, we subsequently performed a transesophageal endoscopic ultrasound with bronchoscope-guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-B-FNA) to the mass lesion in the left upper lobe twice, with the result that sufficient tissues were obtained. Then we changed from the ...
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-associated mortality worldwide1. Here we analysed 1,644 tumour regions sampled at surgery or during follow-up from the first 421 patients with non-small cell lung cancer prospectively enrolled into the TRACERx study. This project aims to decipher lung ...
according to the American Cancer Society. Up to 20 percent of people in the U.S. who die of lung cancer have never smoked, the ACS notes. Exposure to radon gas, secondhand smoke, work-related toxins like asbestos and air pollution are among top environmental risk...

His left upper lobe became chronically infected and progressively non-functional. Because the patient’s overall lung function was moderately preserved, an open left upper lobectomy was performed to prevent recurrences of subacute infections and subsequent damage to the left lung. cystic fibrosislobectomy...
Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) patients exhibit significant heterogeneity in tumor burden, physical condition, and responses to initial treatment. This diversity in treatment responses can result in varying treatment outcomes. The primary objective of this study was to explore the patient demographics ass...
The VLCR receives notification of patients discharged from participating health services with an International Classification Diseases (ICD) code for lung cancer, or suspected lung cancer (C34.0–C34.9, Z85.1, Z85.2). If a patient has a confirmed primary clinical or pathological diagnosis of lung ...
Immunogenic cell death (ICD) converts dying cancer cells into a therapeutic vaccine and stimulates antitumor immune responses. Here we unravel the results of an unbiased screen identifying high-dose (10 µM) crizotinib as an ICD-inducing tyrosine kinase inhibitor that has exceptional antineoplastic...
