Yes, lung cancer patients in remission can be at risk for relapse, as cancer can be unpredictable and may recur even after successful treatment. Factors influencing this risk include the type and stage of lung cancer, the effectiveness of initial treatment, and individual patient characteristics. Regular follow-up care and monitoring are essential to detect any signs of relapse early.
