  2. Signs and symptoms of cancer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signs_and_symptoms_of_cancer

    Signs and symptoms are not mutually exclusive, for example a subjective feeling of fever can be noted as sign by using a thermometer that registers a high reading. [7] Because many symptoms of cancer are gradual in onset and general in nature, cancer screening (also called cancer surveillance) is a key public health priority. This may include ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pancoast_tumor

    The Pancoast tumor was first described by Hare in 1838 as a "tumor involving certain nerves". [2] It was not until 1924 that the tumor was described in further detail, when Henry Pancoast, a radiologist from Philadelphia, published an article in which he reported and studied many cases of apical chest tumors that all shared the same radiographic findings and associated clinical symptoms, such ...

    Size: larger size confers a higher risk of cancer [8] Location: Upper lobe location is a risk factor for cancer, while a location close to a fissure or the pleura indicates a benign lymph node, [8] especially if having a triangular shape. [9] Margin morphology: a spiculated margin is a risk factor for cancer. [8]

  5. Lung cancer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lung_cancer

    Early lung cancer often has no symptoms. When symptoms do arise they are often nonspecific respiratory problems – coughing, shortness of breath, or chest pain – that can differ from person to person. [5] Those who experience coughing tend to report either a new cough, or an increase in the frequency or strength of a pre-existing cough. [5]

  6. Lung cavity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lung_cavity

    If symptoms or imaging findings have been present for less than three months, the cause is most likely an acute infection; if they have been present for more than three months, the cause is most likely a chronic infection, cancer, or an autoimmune disease. [5] The presence of lung cavities is associated with worse outcomes in lung cancer [7 ...

  7. Granuloma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Granuloma

    "Pulmonary hyalinizing granuloma" is a lesion characterized by keloid-like fibrosis in the lung and is not granulomatous. Similarly, radiologists often use the term granuloma when they see a calcified nodule on X-ray or CT scan of the chest. They make this assumption since granulomas usually contain calcium, although the cells that form a ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarcoidosis

    The signs and symptoms depend on the organ involved. [2] Often, no symptoms or only mild symptoms are seen. [2] When it affects the lungs, wheezing, coughing, shortness of breath, or chest pain may occur. [3] Some may have Löfgren syndrome with fever, enlarged hilar lymph nodes, arthritis, and a rash known as erythema nodosum. [2]

  9. Granular cell tumor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Granular_cell_tumor

    The primary method for treatment is surgical, not medical. Radiation and chemotherapy are not needed for benign lesions and are not effective for malignant lesions.. Benign granular cell tumors have a recurrence rate of 2% to 8% when resection margins are deemed clear of tumor infiltration.
