Abstract
As advancements are continuing to be made in the diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer, the number of symptoms that patients present to their managing physicians with, also increases. The most significant of these; dyspnea, cough, and hemoptysis can be very difficult to treat. The goal of this chapter is to offer clinicians a greater awareness to the variety of possible etiologies and the possible therapeutic interventions available to them and their patients
