Bronchial cancer is a form of lung cancer that primarily affects the bronchial tubes (bronchi). This cancer typically develops as a tumor on the bronchi, but can extend to other areas of the body and make the affected areas unable to function properly by blocking air from entering a particular part of the lung and blocking secretions from being removed from the blocked part.
