Adenocarcinoma Lung with a Central Presentation
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 12
Abstract
Non small cell carcinoma comprises 80% of lung cancer. Of which adenocarcinoma is the commonest. It is the most frequently diagnosed subtype in women, as well as in non-smokers, and their symptoms usually correlate with the disease. It is largely peripheral in location. Here we report an unusual case of centrally located adenocarcinoma in a 65year old female in the late stages of disease with few symptoms.
