What is Lung Cancer?
Lung cancer is a type of cancer that begins when abnormal cells in the lungs grow and multiply uncontrollably, forming a tumour. Over time, these cancer cells can invade nearby tissues and may spread to lymph nodes or other parts of the body.
The two main types of lung cancer are Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC), which is the more common type, and Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC), which tends to grow and spread more quickly. Lung cancer may not cause noticeable symptoms in its early stages, which is why timely evaluation, accurate diagnosis, and appropriate treatment are important for better outcomes.
Lung Cancer Conditions We Diagnose and Treat
At Paras Health, our specialists diagnose and treat:
- Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)
- Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC)
- Early-stage lung cancer
- Locally advanced lung cancer
- Metastatic lung cancer
- Lung nodules requiring evaluation
- Recurrent lung cancer
- Pulmonary carcinoid tumours
- Secondary (metastatic) cancers involving the lungs
- Selected chest wall and mediastinal tumours requiring thoracic surgery
Each patient receives a personalised treatment plan based on cancer stage, tumour biology, molecular testing results, lung function, age, and overall health.
Symptoms That May Require Lung Cancer Evaluation
You should consult a specialist if you experience:
- Persistent cough lasting more than three weeks
- Coughing up blood
- Chest pain
- Shortness of breath
- Wheezing
- Hoarseness of voice
- Recurrent chest infections
- Unexplained weight loss
- Persistent fatigue
- Loss of appetite

Some patients may have no symptoms during the early stages, highlighting the importance of timely evaluation of suspicious lung nodules and high-risk individuals.
Types of Lung Cancer Treatments We Provide
At Paras Health, treatment is personalised according to the cancer type, stage, and individual patient needs and may include:
1. Lung Cancer Surgery - Surgical removal of cancer through procedures such as wedge resection, segmentectomy, lobectomy, pneumonectomy, or sleeve resection, depending on tumour size and location.
2. Minimally Invasive Thoracic Surgery - Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (VATS) and robotic-assisted thoracic surgery may be performed in suitable patients to reduce pain, shorten hospital stay, and support faster recovery.
3. Chemotherapy - Systemic anti-cancer medicines used before surgery, after surgery, or as the primary treatment for advanced lung cancer.
4. Targeted Therapy - Precision medicines designed to target specific genetic mutations identified through molecular testing in eligible patients.
5. Immunotherapy - Advanced treatments that help the body's immune system recognise and fight cancer cells in selected patients.
6. Radiation Therapy - High-precision external beam radiation therapy, including advanced techniques such as IMRT and SBRT, where clinically appropriate.
7. Palliative and Supportive Care - Comprehensive symptom management, pain relief, nutritional support, pulmonary rehabilitation, and psychosocial care to improve quality of life throughout treatment.
