What can a lung mass be if not cancer?

A benign lung tumor is an abnormal rate of cell division or cell death in lung tissue or the airways that lead to the lungs. It isnt cancerous. Types include hamartomas, adenomas and papillomas.

Can you have a mass in your lung and it not be cancer?

Optimal treatment of an individual with a pulmonary nodule can lead to early detection of cancer while minimizing testing for a benign nodule. Observations: At least 95% of all pulmonary nodules identified are benign, most often granulomas or intrapulmonary lymph nodes. Smaller nodules are more likely to be benign.

What are the odds of a lung mass being cancerous?

In fact, only 3 or 4 out of 100 lung nodules end up being cancerous, or less than five percent. But, lung nodules should always be further evaluated for cancer, even if theyre small. Because lung cancer treatment is more effective when its caught early, monitoring your lung nodule early could save your life.

Does a mass in lung mean lung cancer?

A lung mass is an abnormal growth or area in the lungs that is more than 3 centimeters in diameter. Anything smaller than this is classified as a lung nodule. Lung masses can be benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous). In most cases, lung masses are cancerous.

What percentage of lung masses are benign?

Rarely, in approximately five percent of cases, lung nodules are found to be cancerous. The remaining 95 percent are often current or past infectious lesions or sometimes an abnormal growth of cells.

How likely is a lung mass cancerous?

For nodules less than 5 millimeters, less than 1% are cancer. For nodules between 5 mm and 10 mm, theres up to a 28% chance that its cancer. For nodules greater than 2 cm (approaching the size defined as a lung mass) the chance of malignancy is 64% to 82%.
