A Pancoast Tumor is a kind of lung cancer that is situated in the upper part of the chest. Thus, it causes not only shortness of breath, cough and weight loss, but also neurological symptoms like paresthesia and pain in the arm and hand of the affected side, and others. The doctor you have to see is a lung specialist (pulmonologist or pneumologist) and/or a cancer specialist (oncologist). Other doctors who deal with the P. Tumor are neurologists and thoracic surgeons.
