Impact of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis on clinical outcomes of lung cancer patients

Abstract The clinical characteristics of lung cancer in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) differ from those of lung cancer in patients without IPF. Thus, we aimed to evaluate the impact of IPF on the clinical course of patients with lung cancer. Clinical data of IPF patients with lun...
