A descriptive and cross-sectional study of 199 patients diagnosed with lung cancer, assisted in the Pneumology Service of "Dr. Juan Bruno Zayas Alfonso" Teaching General Hospital was carried out in Santiago de Cuba, from January, 2014 to December, 2017, aimed at determining the association of tumoral markers with the neoplastic process. In the series there was a prevalence of the male sex and patients aged 50 to 69, as well as the IIIB and IV stages of the disease. In a same way it was more frequent the localization in the right lung and the histologic type non small cells lung cancer, from which adenocarcinoma was more representative. On the other hand, CYFRA 21.1 and CA 72.4 were the two markers associated with lung tumoral processes and were confirmed as such
