Lung tumors 7cm in diameter are usually considered relatively large.

Is the lung 7cm tumor large?

In the medical community, it is generally believed that lung tumors up to 4 cm in diameter belong to a relatively large range, so 7cm tumors undoubtedly belong to this category. However, the size of the tumor is not the only criterion to judge its severity or benign or malignant. Other factors, such as whether the tumor has spread, whether it is accompanied by lymph node metastasis or distant metastasis, etc., need to be combined with other factors.

For lung tumors 7cm in diameter, patients should seek medical attention for detailed examination and evaluation, including puncture biopsy, etc., to determine the nature and stage of the tumor. If it is a benign tumor, the prognosis is generally good after surgical resection; if it is a malignant tumor, it is necessary to formulate a comprehensive treatment plan according to the specific circumstances, including surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, etc., to improve the treatment effect and the quality of life of patients.
