  10. Lung cancer • Small cell • Non small cell • Squamous • Adeno • Large cell • Undifferentiated

  11. Lung cancer • Except for small cell carcinoma of the lung it is generally accepted that surgery is the most effective therapy for lung carcinoma

  12. Small Cell Lung Cancer

  13. Assessment of Patient • Fitness for surgery • Operability of the tumour - Staging

  14. Staging • TNM • T size and position of tumour • N lymph node status • M metastasis
