WHAT IS LUNG CANCER?
•Growth of abnormal cells within air passages in the lungs (one or both)•Abnormal cells forms tumors•Can go through 5 stages• Stage 1• Stage 2• Stage 3A• Stage 3B• Stage 4

HOW IS IT THE DEADLIEST CANCER?

EFFECT ON GENDER
Male
• 1/13 will develop lung cancer
• Appearance doesn’t undergo much change
Female
• 1/16 will develop lung cancer
• Increase 35 times faster than males
• Appearance undergoes significant change

HOW IS IT DIAGNOSED?Symptoms• Intense coughing
• Chest pain; shoulders or back
• Discolored mucus
• Difficulty breathing and swallowing
• Harsh sounds while breathing
• Coughing up bloodTreatments• Surgery
• Chemotherapy
• Radiation
Lung Cancer X-ray

LUNG SURGERY(THORACOTOMY)
• Involves making cut on 1 side of chest
• All/part of lung is removed• Location• Size• Type
• Chest tubes are needed to:• Drain fluid and blood from chest• Refill the lungs with air
• Surgery is done to:• Confirm diagnosis of cancer• Remove lung cancer• Remove scar tissue/ fix air leak
• High survival rate

DOES EARLY DETECTION MAKE A DIFFERENCE?
• No early detection for lung cancer• Symptoms show up after already in advanced stage
• Lung cancer screening is available • People 55-74 years old• Good health• Still smoking/ quit within last 15 years• Have 30 pack-year history
• 1 pack/ day for 30 years

SECOND HAND SMOKE• A mixture of 2 forms of smoke:
• Sidestream smoke- smoke from lighted cigarette, pipe, cigar• Mainstream smoke- smoke exhaled by smoker
• 20-30% chance of developing lung cancer
• Can cause various other diseases• Asthma • Lower respiratory tract infections
• 3,400 lung cancer deaths in non-smokers

DEVELOPMENT OF OTHER CANCERS
• Cancer doesn’t cause cancer
• Lung caner causing substances (tobacco)• Larynx • Throat • Mouth
• Type of treatment • Radiation Therapy

LUNG CANCER VS. SKIN CANCER
Lung Cancer
• Deadliest cancer
• Common in men and women
• No physical sign
Skin Cancer
• Least deadly cancer
• More common in women
• Appears on skin
![Page 18: Lung Cancer](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56815a51550346895dc78504/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
WHAT IS SKIN CANCER?
• Abnormal growth of skin cells
• Least deadliest cancer in US• 8,623 deaths
• Caused mostly by exposure to sun
• Three main types:• Basal cell carcinoma• Squamous cell carcinoma• Melanoma
• Early detection gives successful treatment
• Symptoms• Addition of new moles on body• Change in shape or color of moles• Lesion containing irregular border• Large brown spot with darker
speckles
• Treatment• Surgery (radiation)• Some medications

KIM REES
• Stage 2 Melanoma
• Caused by UV rays
• In the past 10 years:• Had 20 biopsies• Had many atypical precancerous
cells• Had 50+ stitches due to skin
surgery
• “I cannot undo the damage I did at a young age, but I can share my story and educate those who think they are unstoppable, as I once did.”
