Pulmonary Comorbidity in Lung Cancer

Abstract

Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is caused by many disorders that affect the pulmonary vasculature. A recent study has provided evidence that pulmonary vascular remodeling and PH can be observed in lung cancer, and this may be associated with tumor cell-immune cell inflammatory crosstalk. These findings highlight the pressing need to understand better and manage pulmonary vascular comorbidities in lung cancer.
