متن کاملUsual interstitial pneumonia in rheumatoid arthritis-associated interstitial lung disease.
Interstitial lung disease is a common manifestation of rheumatoid arthritis; however, little is known about factors that influence its prognosis. The aim of the present study was to determine whether or not the usual interstitial pneumonia pattern found on high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) is of prognostic significance in rheumatoid arthritis-associated interstitial lung disease (RA-IL...
متن کاملBoth gefitinib and erlotinib induced drug-related interstitial lung disease in a patient with pulmonary adenocarcinoma.
Treatment for non-small-cell lung cancer with gefitinib and erlotinib is efficacious. However, while many studies have reported on gefitinib-related interstitial lung disease (ILD), less published data are available regarding erlotinib-induced ILD. Here, we report a case of pulmonary adenocarcinoma who developed ILD due to gefitinib initially and erlotinib thereafter. The two episodes of ILD we...
