ABSTRACT
The present epidemic of carcinoma of the lung is a consequence of society's indulence of cigarette smoking. Most of the progress in treatment has resulted from more accurate staging of the cancer at the time of diagnosis and the selection of the safest therapy. Future progress hinges on the public health measures to stop smoking, and to a much lesser degree on earlier diagnosis and advances in radiotherapy and chemotherapy.
