• read and tell me how it is so far I. Intro. Lung cancer was uncommon before the invention of tobacco. Lung cancer became known during the year of 1761. But in the year of 1810 lung cancer became father discovered.Fritz Lickint recognized the link between smoking and lung cancer. Lung cancer was mainly found in men because of the smoking of cigars. Then people began to notice cigarettes, Cigarettes were/are a major lung cancer _________ . So many treatments became discovered to cure lung cancer. II. Definition 1 Lung cancer is a carcinoma that develops in the epithelial cells that form the interior lining to the lungs. The airways get the most exposure to inhaled pollutants, thus most people who get lung cancer are smokers. Lung cancer is not just one disease. There are many types of cancer that form in the lungs most of which you can only see through a microscope. The most common cancer of the lungs is epidermis. It is also known as squamous carcinoma because its cells look like a flat surface called a squamous cell. This cancer produces keratin, a substance found in skin and hair, which can be seen in a tumor. Squamous carcinoma is more common in smokers because it develops in the bronchi and spreads by invading local tissues, than to the lymph nodes and into the blood. Large - cell carcinoma is a tumor that is fairly larger than other types. They don’t form keratin but they are common in smokers. They develop in the central or peripheral part of the lungs and the lymph glands. Small cell carcinoma tumors are small and fragile. They are divided into groups by their shapes. The term “oat cell carcinoma” is used to develop in smokers and usually in the central part of the lung. They spread by the lymph lands and into the blood stream early. This type of tumors can only be seen through an electron microscope on high magnification. III. Causes Smoking is the number one cause of lung cancer. Lung cancer may also be the most tragic cancer because in most cases, it might have been prevented -- smoking causes 87% of lung cancer cases. Cigarette smoke contains more than 4,000 different chemicals, many of which are proven cancer-causing substances, or carcinogens. Smoking cigars or pipes also increases the risk of lung cancer. Many of the chemicals in tobacco smoke also affect the nonsmoker inhaling the smoke, making "secondhand smoking" another important cause of lung cancer. It is responsible for approximately 3,000 lung cancer deaths. IV. Treatment Treatment depends on the type of lung cancer, the size of the tumor, the location of the tumor, the stage of illness, the age of the patient, and the overall health of the patient. Surgery is performed to remove the tumor if there is no chance that the cancer has spread. If the disease has spread, then treatment will often include radiation therapy and chemotherapy. Radiation therapy is based on the use of ionizing radiation to destroy cancerous cells. Chemotherapy is treatment of a disease using drugs that directly poison the disease organism. Early stage non-small cell lung cancers are best treated surgically and later stage non-small cell lung cancers are best treated with chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or a combination of the two. For small cell lung cancers, chemotherapy by itself or with radiation therapy is used instead of surgery. V. STATISTICS on men women and kids VI. How to live with lung cancer VII. Conclusion In conclusion the best way to prevent lung cancer is to not smoke or be around people who do. People should not start smoking, and those who already smoke should quit. Everyone should avoid breathing in other people's smoke. VIII. References "Lung, Cancer". 4 November 1998. http://www.evnet.com/fnadoc/lung.html. "Adults cancer help in the uk". http://mdweb.
