My 42 years old sister has been diagnosed on adenocarcinoma of left pleura about a year ago,with pleura effusion .is there any treatment except chemo.

Lung Cancer: sorry to hear that. Depending upon the stage, treatment may include surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or a combination of these The most exciting recent advances in lung cancer treatment has been the discovery of genetic mutations in cancer cells, that in turn can be treated with medications that "target" those mutations. Talk to her treating doctor to check for EGFR and ALK mutation.
