Endocrinological view on lung cancer
Onkol. Prak. Klin 2015;11(3):121-128.
Abstract
Symptoms, which appear in the course of cancer or before its performance and aren’t related to local signs of tumor growth are called paraneoplastic syndromes. Lug cancer is rich in these syndromes, in majority endocrinological, neurological, rheumatological, dermatological and hepatological ones. This paper presents some endocrinopathies that may occur in patients suffering from lung cancer.
