Detailed explanation-1: -When cancer cells travel to the brain, doctors call it brain metastases (or brain mets). This can cause one or more tumors to form in the brain, which can lead to serious symptoms like blurry vision, slurred speech, headaches, and seizures.
Detailed explanation-2: -Some people may get hepatic encephalopathy (HE) in later stages of lung cancer that has metastasized to the liver. Other serious liver complications can also lead to HE. The condition causes reduced brain function because the liver can no longer filter out toxins in the blood.
Detailed explanation-3: -Lung cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors worldwide. It can easily spread to the brain, bone, liver, lymph, and other organs/tissues. The disease condition rapidly worsens after metastasis, and the patient’s survival is drastically shortened.
