The lungs are an organ with excellent blood supply. That is why many cancers spread metastases into lung tissue. Dissemination occurs mainly by hematogenous and implantation routes. Treatment of lung metastases in Incheon is carried out by talented specialists who apply the most modern and effective developments of world medicine in practice.

Metastases may be solitary, multiple, large-cell, small-cell, local, or diffuse. Determining their type plays an important role in the treatment prognosis.

Diagnosis of lung metastases in Incheon is carried out by the following methods:

  • digital radiography,
  • CT of the chest with contrast enhancement,
  • ultrasound of sentinel (supraclavicular) lymph nodes,
  • bronchoscopy with biopsy,
  • laboratory tests of blood and biomaterial.

The treatment regimen depends on many factors: the number of metastases, the nature and type of the primary tumor, the timing of dissemination, and the body’s response to previous antitumor treatment.

The treatment plan may include the following procedures:

  • high-dose multi-agent or single-agent chemotherapy,
  • external and contact radiation therapy,
  • stereotactic radiosurgery methods (removal of new lesions using gamma knife, cyber knife, or nano knife),
  • immunotherapy,
  • gene therapy,
  • treatment with monoclonal antibodies,
  • radioisotope therapy.

Surgical removal of metastases is indicated when their number is small and their localization is clear. Since the doctor cannot be sure that disseminated lesions are absent in other organs and systems, this tactic is chosen rarely or combined with systemic treatment. In clinics in Incheon, you can receive meaningful help in fighting a severe disease and reliably protect yourself against future relapses.
