Purpose : We investigated the outcome of patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD) and lung cancer after surgical resection, along with risk factors of survival and acute exacerbation.
Methods : Between 2002 and 2016, total 74 patients with ILD received surgical resection for lung cancer. The demographics, operative and survival data were reviewed
Results : Mean age was 72±8 years old. 51 (68.9%) patients received video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS). Lobectomy and sublobar resection were performed to 58 (78.4%) and 15 (20.3%) patients, respectively. 32 (43.2%) patients experienced acute exacerbation during early postoperative period. 30-, 90- days mortality and 5-year survival rate were significantly worse than patients without ILD in the same study period (8.1%, 21%, and 21.2% vs. 1.3%, 3.1%, and 73.8%, respectively, p<0.001). The leading cause of death was respiratory failure (57.8%), followed by cancer-related death (35.6%). Among 25 patients who received adjuvant therapy, 10 patients died of respiratory failure during or shortly after adjuvant therapy. Old age (HR 1.07, p=0.011), stage III (HR 4.11, p=0.003) and acute exacerbation (HR 3.14, p=0.004) were significant risk factors for survival. Open thoracotomy (OR 3.06, p=0.083) was risk factor for acute exacerbation. Sublobar resection showed similar survival rate and lower rate of acute exacerbation than lobectomy, although statistically not significant (26.7% vs. 46.6%, p=0.165)
Conclusion : ILD increased the risk of pulmonary resection for lung cancer. VATS were preventive for acute exacerbation. Adjuvant therapy should be considered after careful weighing of risk and benefit.
