| 14043. LUNG CANCER. This termpaper presents a thorough overview and analysis of the etiology, epidemiology, clinical course, prognosis, treatment, and prevention of the world’s leading cause of cancer mortality -- lung cancer. The research paper discusses the multifactorial etiology of lung cancer, while stressing the primary role of smoking; considers prevention strategies and stresses the need for early-detection programs since the high rate of lung cancer mortality (overall 5-year survival is 10-14% for all types and stages) is mainly related to the fact that most lung cancer patients are already in advanced stages of disease at the time of diagnosis.
