Abstract
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and Lung Cancer are common diseases amongst smokers and they often co-exist making management challenging. There has been a clear association between these disorders but the aetiological factors are unclear. In this review we examine the pathogenic links between these two common disorders and the important management issues in dealing with both diseases.
