Non small cell lung cancer is a type of cancer that commonly affects the lungs and spreads more slowly than its counterpart, small cell lung cancer. This particular form accounts for about 85% of all lung cancers, making it the most prevalent subtype. Non small cell lung cancer can be further categorized into three main types: adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and large cell carcinoma. Adenocarcinoma often starts in cells that produce mucus and is typically found on the outer parts of the lungs. Squamous cell carcinoma usually arises in the lining of bronchial tubes and tends to cause symptoms like coughing or shortness of breath earlier on. Large cell carcinoma refers to tumors that are difficult to classify as either adenocarcinoma or squamous cell carcinoma due to their unique characteristics. Although non small cell lung cancer progresses at a slower pace, proper diagnosis at an early stage remains vital for effective treatment options such as surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, targeted therapies or immunotherapy tailored according to individual cases and preferences.
