Overview
Patients with small cell carcinoma (SCC) of the lung have many treatment options. The selection depends on the stage of the tumor. The options are radiation therapy, chemotherapy, surgery, or a combination of these methods. Before treatment starts, ask your health care team about possible side effects and how treatment may change your normal activities. Because cancer treatments often damage healthy cells and tissues, side effects are common. Side effects may not be the same for each person, and they may change from one treatment session to the next.
