This is the first review of studies to measure the effects of continued smoking after diagnosis of lung cancer and suggests that it would be worthwhile offering smoking cessation treatment to patients with early stage lung cancer. People diagnosed can double their chances of survival over five years if they stop smoking compared with those who continue to smoke, finds a study published online in the British Medical Journal.

Lung cancer 'breakthrough' announced by French doctors
