Drug-Induced Interstitial Lung Disease after Anthracycline-Combined Chemotherapy for Breast Cancer: A Case Report and Literature Review

Drug-induced interstitial lung disease (DILD) has been occasionally reported with various causative drugs. In the context of breast cancer, anthracycline infrequently causes pulmonary adverse events. We report a 67-year-old woman with cT2N0M0 triple-negative breast cancer who received neoadjuvant ch...
