PubMed ID: 10667032. Abstract: Two patients with postoperative interstitial pneumonia are reported. Preoperative diagnosis was primary lung cancer without idiopathic interstitial pneumonia (IIP).

AIP is a fatal complication after pulmonary resection and steroid therapy may be useful in some cases of postoperative AIP.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
