مستخلص: Both lung carcinoma and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) have an adverse prognosis, and the co-existence of both diseases is not uncommon. We introduce a clinical case involving a patient diagnosed with concurrent occurrences of lung adenocarcinoma and IPF. The patient underwent a therapeutic regimen comprising the administration of docetaxel in conjunction with nintedanib. This treatment approach was followed by the sustained utilization of maintenance nintedanib over an extended duration, leading to substantial enhancements in the patient’s quality of life. Furthermore, we discuss the few therapeutic options concerning this clinical challenge and possible future therapeutic options. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
