Which type of lung cancer presents with lung cavitations?
π Squamous cell carcinoma of the lung often causes cavitation because the tumor tends to grow rapidly in the center, outgrowing its blood supply.
Mechanism:
- Central necrosis develops due to ischemia (poor blood supply to the tumorβs core).
- The necrotic tissue liquefies and is coughed out through the bronchial tree.
- This leaves behind a cavity within the mass, often seen on imaging as a cavitating lesion.
