Urgent complications occurring in lung cancer (LC) patients need to be recognised rapidly in order to give an adequate treatment. The most frequent pathologies are respiratory complications (dyspnoea, bronchial or pulmonary infections, deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, haemoptysis, superior vena cava syndrome), fever (febrile neutropenia), neurological diseases (cerebral events, medullar compression), pain, and gastroenterological pathologies (emesis).
