Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

As one of the leading causes of cancer-related mortality worldwide, lung cancer continues to present a critical need for innovative approaches in both clinical and surgical fields. 

The aim of this Special Issue, entitled “Clinical and Surgical Insights on Lung Cancer Treatment”, aims to provide a comprehensive exploration of the latest advancements, challenges, and future directions in the management of lung cancer. By bringing together a collection of original research, expert reviews, and meta-analyses, this Special Issue delves into the multimodal strategies employed in the diagnosis, treatment, and post-operative care of patients with lung cancer. The focus on advanced surgical interventions in the context of recent personalized treatment protocols (target molecular therapies and immune response modulators) highlights the evolving landscape of lung cancer care. The insights shared within this Special Issue aim to enhance our understanding and applications of best practices, fostering improvements in patients’ outcomes and quality of life. Ultimately, this Special Issue aspires to contribute meaningfully to the ongoing fight against lung cancer by showcasing the latest developments that have the potential to reshape the future of lung cancer treatment.
