On December 6, Faculty of Medicine Vajira Hospital Nawamindiracha University Came out to post a story to serve as a lesson after finding out that a 27-year-old girl was sick with lung cancer. Even though I don’t have any congenital disease, I don’t smoke. The hospital has posted a message on the page “Vajira Pulmonary Medicine” with the message that

“A woman, 27 years old, no chronic diseases, no smoker, came in with symptoms of fatigue, coughing for 2 weeks, weight loss of 4 kg. Went to the first hospital. X-ray of the lungs found abnormalities, there was a lot of fluid in the pleural membranes. So the lung was drilled out. The result is water mixed with blood. The patient was then sent for a CT scan. It was found that the pleura was thick and the right lung was deflated and a lung mass was found. Later, an endoscopy was performed on the lungs and a large amount of tissue in the lung cavity. Including pieces of tissue in the lungs and after collecting a piece of tissue (lump) in the pleural effusion for examination It was found that this woman had lung cancer.

It can be seen that in this case the differential diagnosis was due to the patient’s young age. and do not smoke It may not always be possible to not think about lung cancer.

1. There are approximately 0.6-13% of lung cancer patients who are young.

2. Definition of young patients Varies for each study Mostly cut at age

3. Usually female more than male

4. Often have no history of smoking.

5. Patients often have symptoms long before they are diagnosed.

6. Make patients not aware that they will have lung cancer.

7. There are some studies that have looked at tumor characteristics. In this group of patients, it has been found that they are more likely to have adenocarcinoma than squamous cell carcinoma, and some reports have found a higher prevalence of driver mutations than older patients, who are candidates for targeted therapy (however Some studies have found that characteristic not different from lung cancer in adults)

The Vajira pulmonary medicine page would like to express its condolences to the family of Dr. Kritthai. And I would like to use this opportunity to raise awareness of lung cancer in young adults.”

Later, it was discovered that Nong Oil, a former Doi teacher, was in the final stages of lung cancer. has come out to share and post such stories Along with stating the message:

“Approximately 10% of CA lungs occur in young patients. and found in patients who do not smoke This person had the same symptoms as Oil, coughed, lost weight, didn’t even think about cancer at first. Because there are rarely risk factors General office work People at home don’t know. People around me don’t smoke. Anyone who has abnormal symptoms, please go see a doctor immediately. Found sooner and easier to treat Even if it’s stage 4, there’s still a chance the disease will go into remission. An annual health check can help with basic screening.
