Lung Cancer Awareness: Risks & Treatment

Lung cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths, affecting men and women worldwide. In this video, Prof. (Dr.) Amitabha Chakrabarti, Senior Consultant in Thoracic and Vascular Surgery, and Dr. Manujesh Bandyopadhyay, Associate Consultant in Thoracic and Vascular Surgery, from Narayana Superspeciality Hospital, Howrah, discuss essential aspects of lung cancer, including early detection, symptoms, risk factors, and advanced treatment options like minimally invasive and robotic surgeries. What You Need to Know About Lung Cancer Lung cancer often shows symptoms similar to tuberculosis, such as persistent cough, chest pain, shortness of breath, and coughing up blood. However, the symptoms usually appear at advanced stages, making early diagnosis essential for better outcomes. Major Risk Factors Smoking, secondhand smoke, exposure to toxins, and family history are major risk factors. Regular screenings, especially for high-risk groups, can significantly improve survival rates by detecting lung cancer early. The low-dose CT scan is highly recommended for early detection in high-risk individuals. Advanced Treatment Options Surgery: Early-stage lung cancer may be treated with procedures like lobectomy or pneumonectomy. Minimally Invasive & Robotic Surgery: Advanced, precise methods that reduce recovery time and minimize scars. Chemotherapy & Radiation Therapy: These are used alongside surgery or as standalone treatments for advanced stages. Targeted Therapy & Immunotherapy: These advanced therapies target cancer cells specifically, sparing healthy cells and enhancing the body’s immune response. Message from the Doctors: Dr. Chakrabarti and Dr. Bandyopadhyay emphasize the importance of regular screenings and early intervention for lung cancer. With advancements in minimally invasive techniques, patients have access to safer, effective treatment options that support quicker recovery and better quality of life.
