Lung cancer is the first cause of mortality and the third most common cancer worldwide. In the United Arab Emirates (UAE), lung cancer ranks third in terms of cancer-related mortality and sixth in terms of incidence. In order to strengthen and to improve the management of this cancer in the UAE, a panel of 15 oncologist and pathologist experts in the field of lung cancer developed the first UAE consensus recommendations for the diagnosis and management of early and advanced lung cancer. A total of thirty-three, statements were drafted, discussed, and voted on, using a modified Delphi process. This consensus meeting acts as a cornerstone for the management of cancers in the UAE and highlights the importance of optimized, evidence-based, and patient-centered practices.
