(C83.2) Смешанная мелко- и крупноклеточная (диффузная)

Mixed small and large cell (diffuse) lung cancer is a type of cancer that occurs when abnormal cells in the lungs grow and divide uncontrollably, forming a malignant tumor. these abnormal cells can spread to other parts of the body and can be difficult to treat.

The pathogenesis of mixed small and large cell (diffuse) disease is complex and multifactorial. it is thought to be caused by an abnormal immune response to environmental factors such as viruses, bacteria, or chemicals, resulting in an uncontrolled proliferation of both small and large cells. this uncontrolled proliferation results in increased production of inflammatory cytokines and other mediators, which can lead to tissue damage and organ dysfunction.
