P38. Extraesophageal reflux disease and lung cancer

Abstract

Introduction Gastroesophageal reflux disease is recognised as a substantial risk factor of esophageal cancer, as well its extraesophageal form should be a risk factor of pharyngeal and laryngeal cancers. EER should take an active part in the exacerbations of COPD, interstitial pulmonary processes and of extrinsic allergic alveolities. Those diseases are also associated with increased risk of lung cancer.
