Lung disease and cancer frequently coexist. Evidence suggests that this coexistence sometimes goes beyond chance: both disease types are associated and the presence of one can be a risk factor or a protective factor for the other. The chapters in this Monograph explore the common causal pathways of cancer and lung disease; consider the diseases from an epidemiological, clinical and therapeutic point of view; and discuss the many ways in which they interact to influence patient management.
