Abstract

Lung cancer is the most found cancer cases in the whole world with an increase of 1.2 million total patients every year. This has shown a high death rate. This study aims to see the prevalence of non-small-cell lung carcinoma among smokers and non-smokers. The research design used here is a case-control study with 69 cases and 74 control subjects using purposive sampling. Data is collected from medical record in H. Adam Malik General Hospital and USU Hospital. Data is analyzed with Epi Info software using logistic regression test. There is a relationship between age, smoking habit and lung cancer (p<0.001). Patients with a high risk of lung cancer are active smokers age >60 years. Adenocarcinoma is the most prevalent among carcinoma type. Patients with adenocarcinoma tend to be non-smoker females age >60 years.
