Is lung cancer hereditary? Generally not

Lung cancer is related to hereditary factors, and its specific causes are closely related to factors such as chromosomal aberrations and hereditary constitution, but its hereditary nature is relatively weak.

1. Chromosomal aberration <br/>Lung cancer is a malignant tumor of the respiratory system and is often related to factors such as bad living and eating habits, but it is also affected by chromosomal aberration and has a hereditary tendency. If one or both parents carry abnormal chromosomes, the next generation of children can become carriers of abnormal chromosomes through genetic instructions, increasing the incidence and risk of lung cancer.
2. Genetic constitution <br/>Affected by genetic constitution, the incidence of lung cancer in people with a family history of lung cancer is much higher than that of other normal people, but it is not absolute. Genetics is only a susceptibility factor for lung cancer, but it does not have an absolute result. Active prevention, avoiding high-risk factors, strengthening cancer screening and screening awareness can reduce the incidence of lung cancer.
