Dr. Salma Koser Bhat, Dr. Kalash Chander and Dr Abhishek Sharma
Abstract
Background: Since 1985, lung cancer has been diagnosed more frequently than any other type of cancer. Lung cancer's clinical manifestations are caused by the tumor's local growth, regional growth or lymphatic system dissemination, haematogenous distant metastatic spread, and remote paraneoplastic effects. The majority of organs can be impacted by distant metastatic illness. The majority of individuals had lung to lung metastases, brain metastasis, and bone metastasis. Aim: Clinical profile of patients of Lung carcinoma in District Kathua of UT of J&K. Materials and methods : This study was a prospective observational and one point analysis. The study group comprised of CA lung patients who were admitted or presented to OPD in GMC Kathua. Results : A total of 54 patients were taken up for this study. Majority of the patients were in the age group of 46 to 75 years. Metastatic pattern had been observed in 42 patients. Among 42 patients having metastasis 42.8% had brain metastasis, 38.09% patients had metastatic pleural/pericardial effusion, 11.9% patients had bone metastasis, 4.76% patients showed lung to lung metastasis and rest of the patients presented with distant metastasis.Conclusion: Mostly death in the lung cancer is due to the extra thoracic metastasis . When a patient presents with a single tumor or multiple tumors, with or without known primary cancer, clinicians should be alert to the possibility primary cancer metastases, and a biopsy of the suspicious lesion should be obtained to aid the histological identification of primary cancer and various radiological scans should be used as an effective tool for diagnosis and evaluation
