ABSTRACT

Introduction: lung cancer is the most frequent malignant tumor in the world, in Cuba it is the second cause of death, its prognosis depends on different factors including the interval between the first symptom and the start of treatment.
Objective: to determine the factors that influence the delay in the diagnosis of patients with lung neoplasia.
Methods: a descriptive, retrospective and longitudinal study of live patients with diagnosis of lung neoplasm was performed at the Military Hospital "Dr. Carlos J. Finlay" in the period from January 2016 to January 2017.
Results: lung neoplasia was more frequent in men over 50 years of age, and with a close relationship with smoking, lack of air was the main symptom for which patients came after a month of onset of smoking symptomatology. The hospital stay was longer than 20 days and the histological diagnosis was made in a few patients.
Conclusions: the delay in the diagnosis of lung neoplasia influences their survival, since they cannot be treated onco-specific.
