BackgroundThe overall frequency and incidence of different cancers across the globe, including lung cancer, are marked by ethnic and geographical variations. Lung cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer worldwide that inflicts most of the cancer deaths. Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) constitutes most lung cancer cases. The aim of this study was to find the frequency and clinicopathological characteristics of NSCLC in high incidence zone of Kashmir, an ethnically and geographically distinct area in Northern India.

“…The median age of our patients in the current study was 58.0 years, which is comparable to other Indian studies [24,25]. It is a decade younger than in the West [26], possibly because the population in the West is aging in general, and longevity is greater.…”

“…This clinical presentation is similar to the study done in India and western studies. [19][20][21] In our study, 44 percent of the participants had a history of COPD. The association of histological types with COPD and non-COPD showed 18 out of 44 (40.9%) of COPD and 30 out of 56 (53.6%) non-COPD had adenocarcinoma, and 40.9% and 30.4% had squamous cell respectively.…”

Background: Bronchial carcinoma has different demographical, clinico-radiological, and histopathological profiles depending on the environment, gender, and racial group. The purpose of this study was to explore the sociodemographical, clinical, radiological, and histopathological patterns of bronchial carcinoma in Bangladesh. Methods: This cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted at the respiratory medicine department of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU). The study period was one year from January 2021 to December 2021. Our study documented socio-demographic patterns, smoking habits, history of COPD, clinical features, radiological findings, histopathological patterns of the tumor, and participants' performance status. Results: One hundred histopathologically confirmed patients with bronchial carcinoma were included in this study. The mean age of the participants was 59.57±10.41 years. The majority of the participants were in the 5th and 6th decade, 35% and 34% respectively. Smokers were 80% in our study. The presenting complaints were cough (87%), shortness of breath (61%), and chest pain (58%). Mass lesions (83%) followed by collapse (8%) were the most common imaging findings. Adenocarcinoma (48%) and squamous cell carcinoma (35%) were the predominant histological types. Conclusions: The histopathological profiles of bronchial carcinoma are changing and adenocarcinoma is becoming the predominant type in Bangladesh.

“…19 Present study revealed male to female ratio of 5.31:1, which is similar to other Indian studies. 3 It was higher in Kashmir study 20 , mainly due to progressive change in life-style. In 79% women, the diagnosis was first thought to be pulmonary tuberculosis and these were given antituberculosis treatment resulting delay in the diagnosis.…”

“…2 Both incidence and mortality from lung cancer in females is also increasing while it is declining in males in developed countries. 3 Lung cancer is the leading cancer seen in both genders in three of the Urban Cancer Registries (Bhopal, Delhi and Mumbai) in India. 2 Tobacco smoking is an important risk factor for lung cancer among females in India.…”
