Small Cell Lung Cancer (Extensive Stage) – A fast-growing type of lung cancer that typically starts in the bronchi, the large airways in the center of the chest. It is characterized by small, round cancer cells that form into masses and spread quickly to other parts of the body. In extensive stage, the cancer has spread beyond one lung and nearby lymph nodes to other parts of the body. The disease often develops in people with a history of smoking and can cause symptoms such as persistent cough, chest pain, and difficulty breathing. Small cell lung cancer can spread rapidly to the lymph nodes, liver, bones, brain, and other organs.
