Malignant lung cancer – it is the most common cancer in the world with a very poor prognosis.

Its symptoms are nonspecific, especially in the initial stages of the disease.

Most often, this cancer gives symptoms only when it begins to compress other organs of the chest or there are metastases in other places.
