Lung cancer can lead to the obstruction or destruction of the bronchioles, the small air passages in the lungs that branch from the bronchi. Tumors can invade the bronchioles, causing inflammation, narrowing, and blockage, which impairs airflow and gas exchange. This can result in symptoms such as coughing, wheezing, and difficulty breathing. Additionally, the cancer can lead to changes in the surrounding lung tissue, further compromising respiratory function.
