Abstract
La relación entre fumar y el cáncer de pulmón está bien establecida. La principal causa conocida del cáncer de pulmón es el consumo de tabaco, que es el responsable del 90% de
los casos de cáncer de pulmón. En el presente artículo presentamos el caso de un fumador
que ha tenido un cáncer de pulmón en el pasado (superviviente de doce años de un adenocarcinoma de pulmón), que demanda tratamiento para dejar de fumar por el miedo a padecer otro cáncer de pulmón y a morir por las enfermedades relacionadas con el consumo de tabaco. Se le aplicó el tratamiento psicológico cognitivo-conductual “Programa Para Dejar de Fumar”. Se describe la evaluación, tratamiento y seguimientos realizados durante doce meses. El resultado del tratamiento muestra que es posible dejar de fumar y mantenerse abstinente a lo largo de un año. También manifiesta claros beneficios del abandono del tabaco a nivel físico, psicológico y en su aumento de la calidad de vida relacionada con la salud
The relationship between smoking and lung cancer is well established. The leading known cause of lung cancer is the consumption of tobacco, which is responsible for 90% of lung cancer cases. In this article we present the case of a smoker who has had lung cancer in the past (survivor of lung adenocarcinoma a total of twelve years), who requires treatment to stop smoking, motivated by the fear of suffering from lung cancer again and dying from diseases related to the consumption of tobacco. He was given the cognitive-behavioral psychological treatment “Smoking Cessation Program.” It describes the assessment, treatment and subsequent follow-ups over twelve months. The result of this treatment shows that it is possible to quit smoking and remain abstinent from it during a year. This case highlights the physical and psychological benefits of quitting smoking, as well as the increase of healthrelated quality of life
