Abstract: In general, lung cancer is all kinds of malignancy of the lung. It consists of malignancy derived from the lung itself (primary) and from out of the lung (metastasis). Clinically, primary lung cancers are malignant tumors derived from bronchial epithelium (bronchial carcinoma). Lung cancer is the main cause of death due to malignancy worldwide. We reported a male of 55-year-old male diagnosed as lung cancer. Diagnosis was based on anamnesis, physical examination, and supporting investigations. Anamnesis included smoking for 10 years ±15 cigarettes/day and complaints of shortness of breath, coughing, chest pain radiating to the back, and significant weight loss. Physical examination revealed enlargement of the right supraclavicular gland and decreased breath sounds in the right lung at the fifth intercostal space. Thorax photo, thorax CT-scan, and histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of lung cancer (adeno-carcinoma). Chemotherapy was administered with a combination of gemcitabine-cisplatin regimens for 12 cycles. The prognosis of this patient was poor because the disease had reached stage 4. However, the patient felt some clinical improvement after one month of chemotherapy.
