Smoking is an addiction people have that damages their health.
Interestingly, these people may be cheaper to care for, i.e. they have lower health care costs, as they die earlier and quickly.[1][2]
Quantification
Smoking is often quantified by pack years.
Non-malignant disease
Non-lung
- Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.
- Recurrent breast abscess.[3]
- Warthin tumour.
Lung
Main article: Medical_lung_diseases#Smoking_associated_disease
- Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
- Pulmonary Langerhans cell histiocytosis (Eosinophilic granuloma).
- Desquamative interstitial pneumonia (DIP).
- Respiratory bronchiolitis interstitial lung disease (RBILD).
- Smoking-related interstitial fibrosis (SRIF).
Cancer
- Lung cancer, esp. small cell carcinoma, squamous carcinoma.
- Bladder cancer (urothelial carcinoma).[4]
- Kidney cancer (renal cell carcinoma).[4]
- Head and neck cancer (squamous cell carcinoma - mouth, larynx, pharynx, esophagus).
- Colorectal cancer (adenocarcinoma).
- Cervical cancer (carcinoma).[5]
- Pancreatic carcinoma.[5]
- Myeloid leukaemia.[6]
Second hand smokers
The relative risk for lung cancer in second hand smokers versus non-smokers is approximately 1.3.[7]
No association with smoking
- Breast cancer.
- Brain tumours (Glioma, Meningioma).[8]
