    Area of Science:

    • Oncology
    • Pulmonology
    • Clinical Medicine

    Background:

    • Bronchial carcinoma is a significant public health concern.
    • Accurate diagnosis is essential for timely and effective patient management.
    • Understanding diverse clinical presentations aids early detection.

    Observation:

    • Eight cases of bronchial carcinoma presented with neck and arm pain over eight years.
    • This presentation mimicked other conditions, complicating diagnosis.
    • The cases originated from a population of 320,000.

    Findings:

    • Carcinoma of the bronchus, including Pancoast syndrome, is a potential cause of neck and arm pain.
    • Diagnostic challenges were encountered in these cases.
    • The incidence of bronchial carcinoma may be higher than previously recognized.

    Implications:

    • Increased awareness of unusual presentations like neck and arm pain is needed for bronchial carcinoma.
    • Improved diagnostic strategies are required for early detection.
    • Timely intervention can improve therapeutic outcomes and patient management.
