Common lung diseases include infectious and non-infectious conditions. Infectious lung diseases encompass pneumonia, pulmonary tuberculosis, and lung abscess. Non-infectious lung diseases commonly include lung cancer—a malignant tumor primarily classified into four pathological subtypes: small cell carcinoma, large cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and adenocarcinoma. Key clinical manifestations following disease onset typically include weight loss, cough, and hemoptysis.
