Lung cancer Vs Leukemia



There are several kinds of cancer diseases. As I see the most two important types of cancer diseases are lung cancer and leukemia. I will outline some vital similarities and differences between them.


The causes of the two types of cancer are different. While the main cause of the lung cancer is smoking, the leukemia’s causes are unknown till now. In addition, there are some factors that contribute on getting the two types of cancer.


Conversely, treating the two types of cancer diseases have some similarities as well as differences. Both of the diseases are treated by chemotherapy and radiation. On the other hand doctors use the surgery as a main cure in the lung cancer disease.


In conclusion, both of the two diseases are dangerous. While the leukemia is scarier than the lung cancer because of the unknown causes.
