Measuring Surgery Outcomes of Lung Cancer Patients with Concomitant Pulmonary Fibrosis: A Review of the Literature

Abstract: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), the most common form of idiopathic interstitial pneumonias, often progresses to restrictive respiratory disturbance and mortality, typically within 10 years. IPF frequently coexists with lung cancer, and the combination of these two disease entities is far more difficult to treat than either lung cancer or IPF alone. In particular, surgery for lung cancer with IPF in the background increases postoperative morbidity and mortality by exacerbating pre-existing IPF, i.e., acute… Show more

“…165 A pertinent issue with regard to oncologic management is the risk of acute exacerbation of the underlying ILD, with an incidence of 21.4% in one study of CTD-ILD patients. 164 Both chemotherapy and thoracic surgery can cause an acute exacerbation in ILD patients 167,168 and radiotherapy is associated with the risk of radiation pneumonitis. 164,169 The infectious complications of chemotherapy can also be challenging in patients who have required immunosuppression for their lung disease.…”

“…The DL CO test was mainly missed in patients without underlying lung fibrosis and respiratory symptoms before surgery. Nevertheless, since DL CO has been reported as a risk factor for postoperative respiratory complication, patients with a low DL CO should be carefully evaluated, particularly for surgery-related AE-IPF or ARDS [33]. This study had several limitations.…”

“…Recent studies have demonstrated that the lung microbiome is also associated with the pathogenesis of IPF (Table 2) [48,[57][58][59][60]. Analysis of BAL samples from patients with interstitial pneumonia, including idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), non-specific interstitial pneumonia, and acute interstitial pneumonia, resulted in the detection of classic respiratory pathogens such as Haemophilus influenzae and various other pathogens that are rarely detected [61].…”
