Material and Method: The study retrospectively investigated 865 patients with lung cancer diagnosed, treated, and monitored between 2000 and 2011 in the Medical Oncology Result: Of the 865 patients with lung cancer, 691 (79.5%) had Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC), and 174 (20.5%) had Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC). Of the patients with NSCLC, 12.3% were in the local stage, 34.7% in the locally advanced stage, and 53% in the metastatic stage.
