A 78-year-old man underwent right lower lobectomy for lung cancer. Histopathological examination led to the diagnosis of adenosquamous cell carcinoma. The background lung adjacent to the pleura showed idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis of microscopic usual interstitial pneumonia pattern, although preoperative computed tomography showed no apparent findings of interstitial pneumonia. The patient showed an acute exacerbation of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis on the third postoperative day. We herein report a case of acute exacerbation of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis of microscopic usual interstitial pneumonia pattern after lung cancer surgery.
一名78岁男性因肺癌接受了右下肺叶切除术。组织病理学检查诊断为腺鳞癌。尽管术前计算机断层扫描未显示间质性肺炎的明显表现，但胸膜旁的背景肺显示为显微镜下普通型间质性肺炎模式的特发性肺纤维化。患者在术后第三天出现特发性肺纤维化急性加重。我们在此报告一例肺癌手术后显微镜下普通型间质性肺炎模式的特发性肺纤维化急性加重病例。
