Article Synopsis
- The study aims to assess early mortality rates in lung cancer patients and identify high-risk individuals shortly after diagnosis.
- Nearly one in four patients died within three months of diagnosis, with many being older, frail, and diagnosed with advanced-stage tumors.
- A significant portion of these patients did not receive any cancer treatment, highlighting the urgent need for early diagnosis and clinical trials targeting this vulnerable population.

We report on a study concerning a retrospective monocentric series of 73 lung cancers operated on between July 2004 and December 2009. All patients had a mineralogical analysis of a sample of lung tissue combined with an occupational questionnaire. This combination enables us to suggest a declaration of occupational exposure in almost one third of cases.

Patients And Methods: Ninety-six patients receiving 3D-CRT for stage I to III disease were evaluated prospectively. Circulating cytokine levels were determined before, every 2 weeks during, and at the end of treatment.
