Overview
Common causes of large cell carcinoma of lung include smoking, asbestos exposure, ionizing radiation, atmospheric pollution, and chronic interstitial pneumonitis. Less common causes of large cell carcinoma of the lung include chromium and nickel exposure, vinyl chloride exposure, and inorganic arsenic exposure.
Common Causes
- There are no precursor lesions associated with most of the types of large cell carcinoma except for basaloid carcinoma.[1]
- Smoking (active/passive)
- Asbestos exposure
- Chronic interstitial pneumonitis
- Ionizing radiation
- Atmospheric pollution
Less Common Causes
- Inorganic arsenic exposure
- Chromium, nickel exposure
- Vinyl chloride exposure
- Radon exposure
- Halogen ether exposure
