Özet
Among lung cancer patients, 5–15% are asymptomatic despite experiencing serious morbidity and mortality [1]. Symptoms vary as a result of cell type, localization, diameter, stage, concomitant pulmonary disease, and concomitant paraneoplastic syndromes. The prognosis for patients who are symptomatic at the time of diagnosis has been shown to be worse than that for asymptomatic patients [2]. Therefore, to increase survival, it may be possible to reduce the cancer-related mortality at an early stage as a result of screening individuals in the high-risk group using low-dose tomography [3].
