Educational aims
Over the past decades, the prevalence of lung cancer has progressively and dramatically increased. Owing to an aggressive natural history, it represents the first cause of death from cancer in the western world. Definitive cure can only be obtained for early stage disease. It appears, therefore, important that adequate management is offered to such patients. The basis of treatment remains surgery, although recent investigations show a slight increase of prognosis with multimodality strategies. The aim of this 3-day course is to clarify contemporary concepts in diagnosis, management and prognosis of early stage lung cancer.
